Answer:

L =80

w=60

Step-by-step explanation:

P =280

L =w +20

=>L +w=280 :2 =140

w+20+w=140

2w=140 - 20

2w =120

w=120 :2 =60

L=60 +20 =80

P =2L +2w

P =2 ×80 +2 ×60

P=160 +120

P=280

Answer:

L = 80    ,   w=60

Step-by-step explanation:

l= w+20

perimeter: l+w+l+w=280

Plug in the value of L in place of L

(w+20)+w+(w+20)+w=280

Combine Like terms

and then separate the variables and knowns by subracting 40 from both sides

4w+40=280

     -40   -40

Divide by 4 from both sides so (W) would be alone

4w=240

÷4     ÷4

You solved half the question now

               w = 60

Remember the L at the top

we now know the value of W

so

L=(60)+20

L=80

<u>just to be sure </u>

80+80+60+60=280

you are welcome

Answer:

The inequality can be represented as:

10w+125\geq200

where w represents the number of weeks in which Maria will be able to buy a phone  for least $200.

On solving it we get : w\geq 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Maria wants to buy a phone for at least $200.

She has savings of $125.

She plans to save $10 every week.

To write an inequality for the situation.

Solution:

Let the number of weeks in which Maria will be able to buy a phone be = w

If she saves $10 each week.

Then, in w weeks she will save in dollars = 10w

She already has savings = $125

So her total savings in w weeks in dollars will be = 10w+125

She wants to buy a phone for at least $200.

Thus, the inequality can be represented as:

10w+125\geq200

Solving for w

Subtracting both sides by 125.

10w+125-125\geq 200-125

10w\geq 75

Dividing both sides by 10.

\frac{10w}{10}\geq \frac{75}{10}

w\geq 7.5

Thus Maria needs at least 7.5 weeks to be able to buy a phone for atleast $200.
