Answer:
0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve problems like this you can either graph or solve mathematically. To do the ladder we need to solve for one variable at a time. So lets cancel one variable out.
Multiply equation 1 by 2
This will give 4x-2y=14
Now we can get rid of y by subtracting 2 from 1
This will give x=9
Plug back in to either equation, i will use equation 2
3(9)-2y=5 simplify
-2y=-22 solve
Y=11
The width of the rectangular pen is equal to 14 feet.
Answer:
Length is 20 m and width is 4 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter of the rectangular alley, 
Length is 5 times the width.
Let width be 
.
So, as per question,
Length,
Now, perimeter of rectangle is given as:
Plug in 48 for 
, 
for 
and for b.
Therefore, width is 4 m.
Length is 
m.
