Answer:

The width is 20.625 and the length is 19.375

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2 1/2 + w = length

Let w = width

Equation:

2 1/2 + w + w = 80                     Combine liked terms

2 1/2 + 2w = 80                    

-2 1/2         -2 1/2                        Subtract 2 1/2 from both sides

2w  =   77.5

÷ 2     ÷ 2                                    Divide 2 from both sides

w = 41.25

Length:

2 1/2 + 41.25 = 165/4 or 38.75

Width:

41.25

41.25/2 = 20.625

38.75/2 = 19.375

5/2x+1/2x=10+7/2x<br><br> PLEASE I NEED HELP ;))))
zlopas [31]

Answer:

The answer is that x = -20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation:

5/2x + 1/2x = 10 + 7/2x

6/2x = 10 + 7/2x

-7/2x + 6/2x = 10

-1/2x = 10

-1/2x * -2 = 10 * -2

x = -20

Proof:

5/2*-20 + 1/2*-20 = 10 + 7/2(-20)

-50 + (-10) = 10 + (-70)

-50 - 10 = 10 - 70

-60 = -60
