Answer:

width=16feet

length=50feet

Step-by-step explanation:

let width be x and length be 3x+2

perimeter=2(length+width)

132=2(3x+2+x)

132=6x+4+2x

132=8x+4

132-4=8x

128/8=8x/8

16=x

width=16feet

length=16×3+2

length=50feet

Answer:

The length is 50 feet and the width is 16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the room.

If the length is 2 feet longer than 3 times the width, the length can be represented by 3w + 2.

Use the perimeter formula, p = 2l + 2w. Plug in the perimeter and plug in 3w + 2 as l, the length:

p = 2l + 2w

132 = 2(3w + 2) + 2w

Simplify and solve for w:

132 = 6w + 4 + 2w

132 = 8w + 4

128 = 8w

16 = w

So, the width is 16 feet.

Plug in 16 as w into 3w + 2 to solve for the length:

3w + 2

3(16) + 2

48 + 2

= 50

The length is 50 feet and the width is 16 feet

2) True or False: Absolute value is always negative?|
german

Answer:

True. The absolute value produces a positive value, but then when you negate that value, it would always be negative. What's important is we're not taking the negative of the number being absolute valued itself, but rather we're taking a negative of the result.

Ben and Landon took turns driving on the recent 820 mile road trip Ben averaged 60 mph while Landon average 56 mph if the trip t
AysviL [449]

Answer:

9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Landon hours = x

Ben hours = y

x + y = 14 - - (1)

60x + 56y = 820 - - - (2)

From (1)

y = 14 - x

60x + 56(14 - x) = 820

60x + 784 - 56x = 820

4x = 820 - 784

4x = 36

x = 36/4

x = 9

Landon drove for 9 hours
