Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a triangle and label the sides (picture below):
● the length is 2x+2
● and the width or the height is 6x
The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the sides
● P = 2x+2 + 6x + 2x+2 + 6x
Isolate the similar terms
● P = (2x+2x+6x+6x) + (2+2)
● P = 16x + 4
Answer:
x = -12
y = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
i used substitution and let 'x' = 10 - 2y
3(10 - 2y) + 4y = 8
30 - 6y + 4y = 8
30 -2y = 8
-2y = -22
y = 11
x + 2(11) = 10
x + 22 = 10
x = -12
