P = perimeter = 2L + 2W = 86 cm.  Also, L = W + 4.  Subst. W + 4 for L, 

P = 2(W + 4) + 2W = 86 cm.  Then 2W + 8 + 2W = 86 cm, and 4W = 78 cm.

Finally solving for W, W = (78 cm)/4, or 19.5 cm.

If W = 19.5 cm, then L = W + 4 cm = 19.5 cm + 4 cm = 23.5 cm

The rectangle's dimensions are 19.5 cm by 23.5 cm.

Can somebody pls show me how to solve this?
fomenos

Answer:

C. 52.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The total from W(-20) to Z(120) is 140.

You can add up all of the numbers in the ratio, 2:3:3, to get 8

Divide 140 by 8 to get 17.5

Multiply 17.5 times the number in the ratio for each segment, so the new ratio would be 35 : 52.5 : 52.5

Since you are trying to find segment XY, which was the 2nd number in the ratio, you would get your answer as 52.5
