Answer:
The length is 56 and the width is 54.
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle is 2x+2y (width and length on both sides). so 2x+2y=220. Also x=y-2, because the width is 2 feet less than the length. Fill x=y-2 in 2x+2y=220 and we get 2(y-2)+2y=220. 2y-4+2y=220. 4y=216. y=54. Fill in y=54 in 2x+2y=220 and we get 2x+2(54)=220. 2x=220-2(54)=112. x=56.

Answer:30=-34
Step-by-step explanation:
First you distribute so 2×X is 2X
2×8 is 16 then you do the other side but you put a one in front of the- so it goes 1 times 3x is 3x and you turn the minus into a plus sign and turn the positive 34 into a negative 34 so -34× 1 is -34 then write that out to look like 14-2X+16= 5X -3X + -34 then you add or subtract the commons which is 14+16= 30 and 5X-3X=2X so now your equation is 30-2x=2X+(-34) then you want to get your X on the same side so you subtract 2X from the right side and the left side then your left 30=-34
Answer: 1¹/₈ hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Joelle spent 1¹/₂ hours reading and Rileigh spent 3/4 of that time.
To find out how much time Rileigh spent, multiply the fractions but first convert the improper fraction to a proper fraction:
= 1¹/₂ = 3/2
= 3/2 * 3/4
= 9/8
= 1¹/₈ hours
Substitution
y = 2x - 12
y = -x + 3
-x + 3 = 2x - 12
+ x + x
-----------------------------
3 = 3x - 12
+ 12 + 12
-----------------------
15 = 3x
------ ------
3 3
x = 5
y = 2(5) - 12
y = 10 - 12
y = -2
The final answer is (5,-2).
