A rectangle is 12m longer than it is wide. Its perimeter is 68m. Write and equation and show steps to find its length and width.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

  length: 23 m; width: 11 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its length and width, so that sum is 34 m. Then you can write two equations in length and width:

  l + w = 34

  l - w = 12

Adding these together gives you ...

  2l = 46

  l = 23 . . . . . . divide by 2

Then the width is

  w = 23 -12 = 11

The length and width are 23 m and 11 m, respectively.

They charge $5 per ticket for a child and $12 per ticket for an adult they sell a total of 342 tickets and make a total of $2250
Olenka [21]

Answer: the number of children tickets sold 265

the number of adult tickets sold 77

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children tickets sold.

Let y represent the number of adult tickets sold.

They charge $5 per ticket for a child and $12 per ticket for an adult. They were sold for a total of $2250. This means that

5x + 12y = 2250 - - - - - - - - - -1

The total number of tickets sold is 342. This means that

x + y = 342

Substituting x = 342 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5(342 - y) + 12y = 2250

1710 - 5y + 12y = 2250

- 5y + 12y = 2250 - 1710

7y = 540

y = 540/7 = 77

x = 342 - y = 342 - 77

x = 265
