Answer:
141/2, 279/4
Step-by-step explanation:
8x+15=7
In the statement the phrase the sum of can tell you that it is going to be an addition problem. So 8x ( eight times a number) would be added to the 15, 8x+15. Since its an addition problem the part where it says ' ... is seven', you know that it will all equal 7. So the answer would be 8x+15=7.
Perimeter is 24.
Length is 4 greater than the width.
Let's use 'x' for width
we can write this as x+4 + x+4 + x + x
x+4 being the width+4 and x being the width
There are 4 sides to a rectangle so you are adding 4 values
Two length and two widths
so we can then combine the two lengths to make 2x+8
and then combine the two widths to make 2x
Then put it together. 2x+2x+8= 4x+8
4x+8=24
Subtract 8 from both sides
4x=16
divide both sides by 4
x=4
The width is 4.
