Ok, l = lewa's backpack and a= alai's. :)

1/2a -5 = l.
so to solve,
1/2 (36) - 5 = l.
18 - 5 = l.
13 = l. 

so Lewa's backpack weighs 13 pounds. Hope it helps!

Is this correct btw I put 1400​
Oxana [17]

Answer: Yes

Step-by-step explanation: The answer of 1400 is correct.

What I did is I found the area of the figure assuming it was a rectangle, then I subtracted the corners that were removed.

1800 - 150 - 100 - 150 = 1400

What are the solutions to the equation (x – 6)(x + 8) = 0?
Likurg_2 [28]
X=6 and x=-8

To solve this, you would treat x-6=0 as one equation, you add 6 to each side to get rid of -6, hence you would get x=6.

Same goes for x+8=0, subtract 8 from each side to get rid of the +8, then you get x=-8

The length of a rectangle is 2x-5 and its width is x+9. Express the perimeter of the rectangle
DanielleElmas [232]
<h2>Hey there!</h2>

<h2>Given,</h2>

       length = 2x-5 and breadth(width) = x+9

<h3>We know that:</h3><h3>Perimeter of a Rectangle is = 2*(l + b)</h3>

                                             = 2*(2x-5 + x +9)

                                             = 2*(x+4)

                                             = 2x + 8

<h3>So, the perimeter of the given rectangle is = 2x + 4</h3><h3 /><h2>Hope it help you</h2>
