The formula for finding area of a rectangle is a=lw.

Write what is given
Area is 64.
Length if 16.
Width is unknown.
Therefore the equation would look like this:
64=16*w
Now to solve for w.
Divide 16 both sides.
64/16 is 4. Therefore:
w=4

The difference of two numbers is 90 and their quotient is 10
bija089 [108]
To solve this, set up two equations using the information you're given. Let's call our two numbers a and b:
1) D<span>ifference of two numbers is 90
a - b (difference of two numbers) = 90

2) The quotient of these two numbers is 10
a/b (quotient of the two numbers) = 10


Now you can solve for the two numbers.
1) Solve the second equation for one of the variables. Let's solve for a:
a/b = 10
a = 10b

2) Plug a =10b into the first equation and solve for the value of b:
a - b = 90
10b - b = 90
9b = 90
b = 10

3) Using b = 10, plug it back into one of the equations to find the value of a. I'll plug it back into the first equation:
a - b = 90
a - 10 = 90
a = 100

Answer: The numbers are 100 and 10</span>

The length of a rectangle is 5 inches longer than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 inches. What is the width of t
tangare [24]

Answer: 7.5"

Step-by-step explanation:

First, take away the extra 5" on the longer side lengths

40-5-5=30

Then divide by 4 to get the width

30/4=7.5

This works because if you took the 7.5" and added back the 5 inches, it makes 12.5. Then add all 4 sides together, you get 40.

7.5+7.5+12.5+12.5=

Lf 7 + 3x = 22. then 2x = ?
Sloan [31]

Answer:

2x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

7 + 3x = 22

-7           -7

Subtract 7 from both sides (you are trying to get the variable alone, and to do that, you have to get every other number to 0. <em>7 - 7 = 0</em>. BUT, whatever you do, you have to do to both sides.)

3x = 15

/3    /3

Divide both sides by three to get the variable alone.

x = 5

Now, plug in the value of x to the second equation and solve.

2(5) = ? --> 10
