A rectangle whose perimeter is 110 feet. The length is 4 times as long as the width. Find the length and the width.

1 answer:

8 0

Set up a system of equations.
l=4w
2l+2w=110

Substitute l in to the second equation.
2(4w)+2w=110
8w+2w=110
10w=110
w=11

Substitute w back into the first equation.
l=4(11)=44

So, the length is 44 feet and the width is 11 feet.

Hope this helped!

Inessa [10]

Answer:

-14

Step-by-step explanation:

The like terms in this equation is y^2 and -7y^2 so combining the two the equation becomes:

xy-6y^2

Then we substitute the values in:

5×2-6×2^2 = -14
