There are two equation of the system

(1) The perimeter

    2(w + l) = p

    2(w + l) = 86

(2) The length and the width

     2w = l + 2

From the second equation

2w = l + 2

l + 2 = 2w

l = 2w - 2

Subtitute l with 2w - 2 in the first equation to find the width

2(w + l) = 86

2(w + 2w - 2) = 86

2(3w - 2) = 86

6w - 4 = 86

6w = 90

w = 15

Now, find the length by subtituting w with 15

l = 2w - 2

l = 2(15) - 2

l = 30 - 2

l = 28

The dimension of the rectangle

length = 28 cm

width = 15 cm

Which is more 45g or 45ml?
MatroZZZ [7]

For water 1 gram = 1 ml.

This means 45 grams are equal to 45 ml's.

Neither one is greater than the other one as they are equal.

The problem doesn't state what is being measured, so the answer could be different depending on the density of the product being measured.

Suppose 6 of 15 students in a grade-school class develop influenza where 20 percent of grade-school students nationwide develope
Snowcat [4.5K]
I am not sure what the question is here. I can tell you how to find the percent of kids that developed influenza in that class. We can compare it to the 20% of students nationwide. There could many different questions that stem from the piece of information you gave.

To find the percent of kids that developed influenza in that class do 6÷15 which gives you
.4 and written as a percent would be 40%.

Please message me if you have any questions! Hope this helps!
