Answer:
w = 23
l = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
w = width
l = w+5
P = 2 (l+w)
102 = 2( w+5+w)
102 = 2(2w+5)
Divide each side by 2
51 = 2w+5
Subtract 5
46 = 2w
Divide by 2
23 = w
The width is 23 and the length is 23+5 = 28
Draw a number line number it with negative number on the left and postive numbers at the right start at postive 6 now go to the left twice your answer should be 4
Michelle: x
Ian: 5x
Joe: 7x
Michelle + Ian + Joe = 208 berries
x + 5x + 7x = 208
Combine like terms: 13x = 208
Divide both sides by 13: x = 16
Joe = 7x = 7*16=112
Joe picked 112 berries
-4x + 6y = 12
x + 2y = -10
First solve for x in the second equation
x + 2y = -10
x = -10 - 2y
Now we have a value for x so we can substitute it into the other equation
-4 (-10 - 2y) + 6y = 12
Now solve for y
40 + 8y + 6y = 12
40 + 14y = 12
14y = -28
y = -2
Now we have a value for y that we can plug into one of the original equations so we can solve for x
x + 2y = -10
x + 2(-2) = -10
x - 4 = -10
x = -6
Your solution set is
(-6, -2)
