Answer:
x = -33
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3(x+6)=-18
Multiply each side by 3/2
3/2*2/3(x+6)=-18*3/2
x+6 = -27
Subtract 6 from each side
x +6-6 = -27-6
x = -33
1. The formula for calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, is:
P=2L+2W
P is the perimeter of the rectangle (P=320 feet).
L is the lenght of the rectangle.
W is the width of the rectangle.

2. The problem says that the length of the rectangle is three times the width, so you have:
</span>
L=3W
3. When you substitute L=3W and P=320, into P=2L+2W, you obtain:
P=2L+2W
320=2(3W)+2W
320=6W+2W
8W=320
W=320/8
W=40 feet
4. The barn forms one end of the rectangle. Therefore the linear feet of fence (x) is:
x=P-W
x=320 feet-40 feet
x=280 feet

How many linear feet of fence must he buy?

The answer is: 280 feet
Using 5*6=30, you can add 6 to the 30, which equals 36.
SO just add 6 to your answer of 5*6, the answer you will get is 36.
