Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter= 2L+2W. If L=3W(three times the width) then 2(3W)+2W=112. Or 6W+2W=112 which is equal to 8W=112. To solve for the width, divide both sides by 8 and find 112/8=14, therefore W=14.

Answer:

14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the length is 3 times the width

If each width is denoted by W, then each length is L = 3W

Perimeter (add up all lengths and widths),

= L + L + W + W

= 3W + 3W + W + W

= 8W

Given that the max perimeter is 112cm

hence 8W = 112,

W = 14 cm at most

A group of tourists spends $156 to rent snorkels and fins. A total of 15 snorkels and 18 pairs of fins are rented. Renting a sno
Bas_tet [7]
You could use many methods to find the answer to this problem, but I am going to use the most efficient one I know.
18f+15(4f)=156
F is for fins. We should now solve the equation.
18f+60f=156
78f=156
156÷78=2
So fins cost 2 dollars. Now, we know snorkels cost four times the amount of fins. Four times 2 is eight. So the snorkels cost $8 to rent. Let's check our math.
15(8) + 18(2)
120+36=156
So it cost $8 to rent a snorkel.
