Part (a)

<h3>Answer: 2(2.4+w) = 14.2</h3>

--------------

Explanation:

L = 2.4 = length

W = unknown width

The perimeter of any rectangle is P = 2(L+W)

We replace L with 2.4, and replace P with 14.2 to get 14.2 = 2(2.4+w) which is equivalent to 2(2.4+w) = 14.2

========================================================

Part (b)

<h3>Answer:   w = 4.7</h3>

--------------

Explanation:

We'll solve the equation we set up in part (a)

2(2.4+w) = 14.2

2(2.4)+2(w) = 14.2

4.8+2w = 14.2

2w = 14.2-4.8

2w = 9.4

w = 9.4/2

w = 4.7

The width must be 4.7 cm.

Mr. Parker has 982 pounds of grain. He feeds 240 pounds ro his pigs and 460 to his cows. How much grain does he have left
denpristay [2]

Starting amount: 982 pounds of grain

Since Mr. Parker fed 240 pounds of grain to his pigs, subtract 240 pounds from 982 pounds of grain.

982 - 240 = 742

After feeding pigs: 742 pounds of grain

Mr. Parker fed another 460 pounds of grain to his cows from his 742 pounds, so subtract 460 pounds from 742 pounds.

742 - 460 = 282

After feeding pigs and cows: 282 pounds of grain

Mr. Parker has 282 pounds of grain left.
