X = 6y - 3
x + y = 53
6y - 3 + y = 53
7y - 3 = 53
7y = 53 + 3
7y = 56
y = 56/7
y = 8
x = 6y - 3
x = 6(8) - 3
x = 48 - 3
x = 45
ur numbers are : 8 and 45
Multiply the first digit by 3 then subtract the answer by 2. Rule: x 3 - 2
10^6 = 1,000,000
10^2 = 100
1,000,000 / 100 = 10,000
so 8.76x10^6 is 10,000 times greater than
Answer: the length is 87 feet
The width is 40 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the playing field.
Let W represent the width of the playing field.
The playing field is rectangular. The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as
Perimeter = 2(L + W)
The perimeter of a playing field for a certain sport is 254 ft. This means that
254 = 2(L + W)
L + W = 254/2
L + W = 127 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
The length is 47 ft longer than the width. This means that
L = W + 47
Substituting L = W + 47 into equation 1, it becomes
W + 47 + W = 127
2W + 47 = 127
2W = 127 - 47 = 80
W = 80/2 = 40
L = W + 47 = 40 + 47
L = 87
