Adding the equations to eliminate p would be the correct step because when you add the equations together, the variable p would cancel out and be eliminated leaving you with 2w=35 you can then solve for the value of w which you can then input to find the value of p, allowing you to solve for the values of both p and w.
6 + 28 + 4x +28
34 +28 + 4x
62 + 4x?

Answer:
Sadie took 47 minutes to finish her test.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Laura's time be x minutes.
Then we have:
x + 3x - 16 = 68
4x = 84
x = 21 minutes.
So Sadie took 3(21) - 16 = 63-16
= 47 minutes.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+6=-5-2x-6
+2x. +2x
5x+6= -5-6
5x+6= -11
-6. -6
5x= -17
divide by 5
x= -3.4
X=3
x is the width of the sidewalk
The outside dimensions of the walkway are 12 + 2x by 8 + 2x
The total area is (12 + 2x)(8 + 2x)
The total area minus the area of the pool should be equal to the area of the pool
Hoped this helped!
