Answer: y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
A square's area can be done by using s^2, where s is y in this case. Because there are 5 squares, the area of the figure is 5y^2. Because the area is also 180cm, 5y^2=180.
Then divide both sides of the equation by 5 to get y^2 = 36. Then square root both sides of the equation to get y = 6.

Answer:
L = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 2L + 2W
you know that P = 50, W=10
So you have to replace those values on the equation
50 = 2L + 2*(10) --> Replace P and W
50 = 2L + 20 --> Multiply and now you are going to separate the unknown and the constants.
Remember that if you send a constant to the other side of the equal the sign will change to its opposite
50 - 20 = 2L --> Solve the constants
30 = 2L --> Now for the L, you have to leave it alone, so the 2 that is multiplying you have to send it to the other side of the equal but with the opposite operation, the opposite operation of multiplying is dividing, so you have:
30/2 = L
L= 15
