The formula for the perimeter is P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>, where <em>w</em> is the width and <em>l</em> is the length. It is given that the width = (x+2) and the length = (x+6). Therefore, we can make this equation:
P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>
64 = 2(x+2) + 2(x+6) ⇒ Distributive property
⇒ 64 = 2x + 4 + 2x + 12 ⇒ Combine like terms
⇒ 64 = 4x + 16 ⇒ Subtract 16 from both sides
⇒ 48 = 4x ⇒ Divide both sides by 4
⇒ x = 12
Then, we use x = 12 and substitute it in to find the length and width
<em>Width</em> = (x+2) = (12+2) = 14
<em>Length</em> = (x+6) = (12+6) = 18
The dimensions of the patio is <u>14 by 18</u>
16 1/2 cup servings if they are putting the grape juice and the lemonade together then that adds up to be 8 and then you have to fine how many 1/2 cups you can get out of 8 which is going to be twice as much so it's 16
Length = x + y
Area of a square = Length x Length
The expression can be :
1) Area of the square = (x + y)(x + y)
2) Area of the square = (x + y)²
3) Area of the square = x² + 2xy + y²
You add the numerators and keep it over the denominator. 4/16 plus 12/16 is 16/16 and when the same number is the denominator and numerator at the same time, its 1

Answer: a) 3 2/3, b) 5 2/5
Explanation:
a) 5/3 + 6/3 = 11/3 = 3 2/3
b) 12/5 + 15/5 = 27/5 = 5 2/5
