The perimeter of the patio is 64 feet. The width of the patio is (x+2) feet and the length of the patio is (x+6) feet. What are

ValentinkaMS [17]

The formula for the perimeter is P = 2w + 2l, where w is the width and l is the length. It is given that the width = (x+2) and the length = (x+6). Therefore, we can make this equation:

P = 2w + 2l

64 = 2(x+2) + 2(x+6) ⇒ Distributive property

⇒ 64 = 2x + 4 + 2x + 12 ⇒ Combine like terms

⇒ 64 = 4x + 16 ⇒ Subtract 16 from both sides

⇒ 48 = 4x ⇒ Divide both sides by 4

⇒ x = 12

Then, we use x = 12 and substitute it in to find the length and width

Width = (x+2) = (12+2) = 14

Length = (x+6) = (12+6) = 18

The dimensions of the patio is 14 by 18

Lisa and Daisy work at a hair salon. The salon charges $18 for a hair styling session with Lisa and $12 for a session with Daisy

Kitty [74]

Our equation is:
18x + 12y = 216

if Daisy calls in sick that day that means that that day she attained y=0 customers. now we need to solve for x.

18x = 216
x = 12

Answer is 12.

Which number is the same distance away from -12 as 2?

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

-26

Step-by-step explanation:

2 is 14 away from -12. The other number that is 14 away from -12 is -26.

-12 + x = 2

x = 14

-12 - 14 = -26
