So the perimeter(P) of a rectangle would be:
P= 2L+2W
L being the length and W being the width.
The problem says the length is 4cm more than the width, so L= 4+W.
So if we substitute L with 4+W, we get:
P= 2(4+W) + 2W
Use the Distributive Property
P= 8+2W+2W
Combine like terms
P=8+4W
Since we're given the perimeter, we could replace P with 52. So:
52=8+4W
Subtract 8 to both sides
44=4W
Divide 4 to both sides
11=W
Therefore, the width is 11cm
And since the length is 4cm more than the width, we could add 4cm to 11cm to find that the length is 15cm
Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are 15cm by 11cm
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the followign simple interest formula
FV (aka AV)=PV(1+it)
which means that we have
(800+360)=800(1+3i)
1.45=1+3i
.45=3i
.15=i

Answer:
They say that the sum of the two numbers (x and y) is 64, so we can write our first equation by adding them and setting that sum equal to 64:
x + y = 64
The question also tells us that their difference is 14. Similarly to before, we'll just subtract the two numbers and set that difference equal to 14:
x - y = 14
Now from here, you know how to continue with substitution to find the values for x and y. Just remember when you get a word problem to break it down and look for key words like sum, difference, or product, and from there you'll be able to build your system of equations.

Well, at least you improved. But maybe you should use another source besides brainly for your tests. Sometimes people put the wrong answers just to get points.
I hope you do better next time! Good luck!!
