Answer:

l = 29.4 yards

w = 66.8 yards

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Perimeter of a Rectangle: P = 2w + 2l

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

P = 163 yards

w = 2l + 8

l = l

<u>Step 2: Set up equation</u>

P = 2w + 2l

163 = 2(2l + 8) + l

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>l</u></em>

  1. Distribute 2:                              163 = 4l + 16 + l
  2. Combine like terms:                 163 = 5l + 16
  3. Subtract 16 on both sides:        147 = 5l
  4. Divide both sides by 5:             147/5 = l
  5. Rewrite:                                      l = 147/5
  6. Evaluate:                                    l = 29.4 yards

<u>Step 4: Find </u><em><u>w</u></em>

  1. Define:                    w = 2l + 8
  2. Substitute:              w = 2(29.4) + 8
  3. Multiply:                  w = 58.8 + 8
  4. Add:                        w = 66.8 yards

What is y=4/5x+2 written in standard form
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

4x-5y=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line in standard form is in the form

Ax + By = C

where

A is a positive integer, and B, and C are integers

In this problem we have

y=\frac{4}{5}x+2 ----> equation of the line in slope intercept form

Convert to standard form

Multiply by 5 both sides

5y=4x+10

4x-5y=-10

HELP PLEASE PLEASE HELP<br> Solve for t.<br> -10t − -17t − 10t + -13 = 11
Marta_Voda [28]

-10t - (-17t) - 10t + (-13) = 11   (two negative signs makes a positive)

-10t + 17t - 10t - 13 = 11  Combine like terms

-3t - 13 = 11    Add 13 on both sides

-3t = 24     Divide -3 on both sides

t = -8
