Answer:

15 crickets; 20 ladybugs

C = G + 10

L= C+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Crickets = C

Ladybugs = L

Grasshoppers = G

We know he found 5 grasshoppers, so:

C = G + 10  --> because he found 10 more crickets than grasshoppers

if we plug in 5 for G (grasshoppers), we can solve for C (crickets):

C= 5+10

<u>15 Crickets</u>

<u />

Now that we know he found 15 crickets we can make our second equation:

L= C+5  --> because he found 5 more ladybugs than crickets

if we plug in 15 C (crickets), we can solve for L (ladybugs):

L= 15+5

<u>20 Ladybugs</u>

PLEASE HELP!!!!!! The length of a rectangle is three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 56 cm, find its area.
Alexus [3.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

l = length

w = width

l = 3w

perimeter p = 2l + 2w = 56

using the identity of the first equation

p = 2(3w) + 2w = 56

6w + 2w = 56

8w = 56

w = 7 cm

l = 3w = 3×7 = 21 cm

so, the area is

l×w = 21×7 = 147 cm²
