Set up the following equations:

L + W = 110
L - W = 20

110 represents the lengths of the length and width of the triangle, as you'll divide total perimeter of the rectangle, 220, by 2 to find the individual lengths. 20 is the difference between the length and width.

We'll use elimination for this system of equations, as there are opposite coefficients for W in both equations. Combine the two equations:

2L = 130

Divide both sides by 2 to get L by itself:

L = 65

The length of the rectangle is 65 feet.

Plug this value into the second equation:

65 - W = 20

Add W to both sides:

65 = 20 + W

Subtract 20 from both sides:

45 = W

The width of the rectangle is 45 feet.

Nicole used 3/8 of her ribbon to wrap the present. If she used 6 feet of ribbon for the present how much ribbon did Nicole have
lilavasa [31]
You would set up a proportion. 3/8 = 6/x... cross multiply ( 3*x = 3x and 6*8 = 48)  3x = 48... divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 = x and 48/3 = 16)

So, she originally had 16 feet of ribbon.
