Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

width = w

length = 12 + w

 

Perimeter of rectangle = 2*length + 2*width since perimeter measures the distance around an object.

 

The perimeter of a certain rectangle is 16 times the width means 2 * (12 + w) + 2 *w = 16w

24 + 2w + 2w = 16w

24 + 4w = 16w  subtract 4w from both sides

24 = 12 w  divide both sides by 12

2 = w

 

width = 2 cm

length = 12 + 2 = 14 cm

Chase caught 2/3 of the balls hit to left field. Ryan caught 3/5 of the balls hit to right field. Which pair of equivalent fract
slava [35]

Answer:

1 4/15 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that:

Chase caught 2/3 of the balls hit to left field.

Ryan caught 3/5 of the balls hit to right field.

The Lowest common denominator for both fraction is given as 15

Hence, the equivalent fractions for each boy is calculated such that the denominators of both fraction is 15

For Chase:

We Multiply both numerator and Denominator by 5

2 × 5 /3 × 5 = 10/15

2/5 = 10/15

For Ryan

We Multiply both numerator and Denominator by 3

3 × 3 /5 × 3 = 9/15

3/5 = 9/15

The total amount of the balls they both caught is:

10/15 + 9/15

= 19/15 = 1 4/15

12 = -2x = 4y<br> Help please
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

x=−2y+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add -12 to both sides.

−2x+12+−12=4y+−12

−2x=4y−12

Step 2: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x /−2   = 4y−12/−2

x=−2y+6
