Answer:

W=7 L= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

you start off with

   P=2L+2W   (the equation to find perimeter)

the equation gives you the perimeter = 46

so you plug that in

     46=2L +2W

then it says the length IS (which also means equals) 9 plus the width

so you then get another equation:

    L=9+W

you take that and plus it into the first equation/ substitute the new equation for L in the first equation

     46=2(9+W)+2W

you solve that and get

   w=7

you plus the 7 in for the w

L=9+7 = 1

W=7 L=16

What is the value of x?
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since we can see that the lines are parallel

and we can see that the both are interior angles and when we sum up both angles we get 180

2x - 5  + 45 = 180

2x  + 40 =180

2x = 180 - 40

2x =140

x = 140/2

x = 70
