Answer:

length= 24 inches

width= 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing down what you know.

width= w

length= 3w+3

Then, we can substitute into the perimeter of a rectangle equation, P=2l+2w.

62= 2(3w+3) + 2(w)

62=6w+6+2w

62=8w+6

56=8w

7=w

Now, plug this into our original equations for length and width:

width=7

length= 3(7)+3, so 24

Two trains leave stations 442 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 95 miles per hour

Brrunno [24]

$(75 + 95) \times x = 442$

$x = \frac{442}{75 + 95} = 2.6$

so it takes 2.6 of hours which is the same as 2 hours and 36 minutes for them to reach eachother.

Lesson 4 Solving One Variable Equation

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

b = -³¹⁄₃

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this Algebra equation by separating the variable and constants.

3b + 15 = -26 - 20

3b + 15 = -46

3b = -31

b = -³¹⁄₃

A rectangular garden has an area of 46 1/2 square feet. If the garden is 7 1/2 feet long, how many feet wide is it?

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The answer is 6 1/5 feet in width.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the formula for area is wl or width x length, we can utilize our reversive property to find our width by dividing the Area we are given by our length, giving us the missing width in return. Dividing 46.5 square feet by 7.5 feet gives us 6.2 feet, or 6 1/5 feet.

Hope this helps!
