Hi there!
We can find the perimeter of a rectangle by using the following formula:
perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length
In the question, we are given the following data: the length of the rectangle is 12 in and the perimeter is 56. Let's substitute this into our formula!
56 = 2 × width + 2 × 12
Multiply first.
56 = 2 × width + 24
Now subtract 24 from both sides.
32 = 2 × width
And finally, to find the width of the rectangle, divide both sides of the equation by 2.
16 = width
(we can eventually switch sides in the equation).
width = 16
~ Hope this helps you!

Answer:
x = - 5, x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the rules of logarithms
log x - log y = log (
)
x = n ⇔ x = 
note that log x =
x
Given
log (x² + 3x) - log10 = 0, then
log(
) = 0, thus
=
= 1 ( multiply both sides by 10 )
x² + 3x = 10 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
x² + 3x - 10 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 5)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
Solution is x = - 5, x = 2
Yes you can write a ratio in more than one way
