We can say L as length and W as the width 

L= 3w + 8 

The formula for perimeter is 2L + 2W = P. We can substitute L in as "3w+8" to make the equation... 

2(3w+8)+2w=88        Now, we can simplify by distributing the 2 to each term
6w+16+2w=88
8w+16=88               Then subtract 16 from each side..
8w=72
w=9

So the width is 9, so we can substitue that into the previous equation, L = 3w+8. 

L=3(9)+8
L=27+8
L=35, W=9

olasank [31]

Given :

Abraham has visited 10 countries already. He has a goal of visiting at least 50 countries.

He plans to achieve this goal by visiting 5 new countries per year (y) for the next several years.

To Find :

Which inequality and solution shows the amount of years that it will take for Abraham to meet his goal.

Solution :

Let, after x years Abraham visited y countries.

It is mathematically given as :

10 + 5x=y

Now, it is given that his goal is minimum of 50 countries.

So,

10+5x \ge 50\\\\5x\ge 40\\\\x \ge 8

Therefore, minimum years required to meet his goals are 8.

Hence, this is the required solution.

If f(x)=| x-2 |, then find f(-3)
GenaCL600 [577]

The value of f(-3) is 5.

In order to find this answer, we are going to input -3 in for x (this is what the notation f(-3) means).

f(x)=| x-2 |

f(-3)=| -3 -2 |

f(-3)=| -5 |

Now we have to take the absolute value.

f(-3) = 5

The sum of three consecutive integers is greater than 66. What is the smallest possible product of the largest and smallest of t
AysviL [449]

Answer:

528

Step-by-step explanation:

So naturally at first sight for this question we would think -->

Oh 3 consecutive integers = 66 --> 66/3 = 22 (n-1), (n+1) so --> 21, 22, and 23.

But no. At second look it is the sum of 3 consecutive integers is greater than 66. So we find the next possible pair since it says smallest possible product.

We get the set (22, 23, 24). => Multiply the least and greatest integers together respectively 22 and 24 which amounts to => 528

And thus, we have out answer of 528

Hope this helps!
