Answer:
Subtract 2x from each side, Subtraction Property
Step-by-step explanation:
Greatest common factor between each term is 20, so you'd divide both by 20 to reduce this to 20(p - 3).
Well we can find the perimeter by using the formula P=2L + 2W
P=2(30) + 2(18) P=60+36 P=96
I believe we can divide the perimeter by 18 to find the total amount of lights needed.
96÷18=5.333333
So we know at least 5 lights are needed.
I'm not sure if I'm correct, but I hope this helped anyways :)
The area of a square is its length times its width: l x w = 361
Since the length of a square is the same as its width, replace 'w' with 'l': l x l = 361
l x l = l² = 361 ---> l = √361 ---> l = √361 ---> l = 19 ft.
