Answer:

The equation can be expressed as;

x+y=71 where,

Lengths of two equal sides=x=22 m

Lengths of longer side=y=27 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The total perimeter can be expressed as;

Total perimeter=Total length of the equal sides+total length of the longer side

where;

Total perimeter=71 m

Total length of each of the equal sides=x m

Total length of longer side=y=(x+5) m

replacing;

x+y=71...equation 1

71=(2×x)+(x+5)

2 x+x=71-5

3 x=66

x=66/3

x=22 m

y=x+5=22+5=27 m

Lengths of two equal sides=22 m

Lengths of longer side=27 m

Equation;

x+y=71

Answer:

The first question is (n*8) - 4

The second question is no.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first question, you add 8. The first is 1. 1 * 8 = 8 - 4 = 4.

Therefore, the equation is (n*8) - 4

The second question, you can plug in numbers. You can solve for a term.  -100 + 17 = -83. -83 is not a multiple of -4. -100 is not a term.
