Let l represent length, and w represent width
l=3w-5

P=2(l+w)
46=2(l+w)
Divided 2 for both side
l+w=23
Now, I substitute l=3w-5 into this equation
3w-5+w=23
4w-5=23
Add 5 for both side
4w=28
Divided 4 for both side
w=7 inches
l=3w-5
l=3(7)-5
l=21-5
l=16 inches. As a result, the length is 16 inches, and the width is 7 inches. Hope it help!

Victor has saved $89.25 for the bicycle that he wants. The bicycle costs $129.85. Victor
fenix001 [56]

Answer: No, the equation is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Victor has saved $89.25 for a bicycle that costs $129.85. To get the remaining amount that is needed to complete the bicycle, we subtract the amount saved by Victor from the total amount. This will be:

= $129.85 - $89.25

= $40.6

The amount remaining is $40.6

The equation written by Victor is

= $89.25 + $129.85

= $219.1

The equation written by Victor is not correct. The correct equation is:

= $129.85 - $89.25 = $40.6

2^2x+2 *5^x-1=8^x*5^2x
Liula [17]

Answer:

The solution will be "x = 2 and x = -1".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

⇒  2^{2x+2}\times 5^{x-1}=8^x\times 5^{2x}

On solving "8^x", we get

⇒  2^{2x+2}\times 5^{x-1}=(2^3)^x\times 5^{2x}

As we know, if the base are same then their powers will be added together.

⇒  2x+2=3x ...(equation 1)

⇒  x-1=2x ...(equation 2)

From equation 1, we get

⇒  2=3x-2x

⇒  2=x \ i.e., x =2

From equation 2, we get

⇒  -1=2x-x

⇒  -1=x \ i.e., x=-1

So that the correct answer will be "x = 2" and "x = -1".
