Answer:
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
180 + 8x = 160 + 6x
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
- Subtract 6x on both sides: 180 + 2x = 160
- Subtract 180 on both sides: 2x = -20
- Divide both sides by 2: x = -10
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
180 + 8(-10) = 160 + 6(-10)
180 - 80 = 160 - 60
100 = 100
Answer:
The width of the rectangle is 56 and the length is 48
Step-by-step explanation:
divide the perimeter in half (52 + 52)
then subtract 4 from one of the 52's
you get the answer of 56 and 48
Your answer can be checked by conferming that 56 - 48 = 8 so the width of a rectangle is 8 inches longer than its length.
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
since we know y = 4, we can plug this into the equation to find x
8x - 2y = 48
8x - 2(4) = 48
8x - 8 = 48
8x = 56
x = 7
