Answer:
The length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the yard
The width can be represented by x - 2, since it is 2 less than the length.
Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is width
Plug in the expressions and perimeter:
20 = 2x + 2(x - 2)
Solve for x:
20 = 2x + 2x - 4
20 = 4x - 4
24 = 4x
6 = x
So, the length is 6. Plug this into x - 2 to find the width
x - 2
6 - 2
= 4
So, the length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet

The product of -5 and -4 is 20
The square of the smaller number, -5, is 25.
The product, 20, is indeed 5 less than 25, the square of the smaller number.</span>
18%=0.18
380×0.18=68.4 increase
380+68.4=448.4
the easier way is to think 1 times any number is the same number so 380(1+0.18)=448.4 (just like adding tax to the price of something to see how much you'll actually pay)
The third one because each banner costs $16 and x is the number of banners, $32 is just a one time fee so there is no x.
