It has a width of 35 feet.
*You just subtract the perimeter by the length/width and in this situation you subtract the length*
The greates amount of pieces he would be able to use would be 9 because 8 divided by 5/6= 9 and 3/5.the 3/5 piece is too short.
Pour 4 times of 124-gallon into a big jug.
Amount of water = 124 x 4 = 496 gallons
Then use the 45-gallon jug to scoop out the water 11 times.
Amount of water scooped out = 11 x 45 = 455 gallons
Water remaining = 496 - 450 = 1 gallon.
Answer:
x+2
Step-by-step explanation:

X + y = 8
x - y = 12
--------------add
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10
x + y = 8
10 + y = 8
y = 8 - 10
y = -2
ur numbers are 10 and -2
