Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length.
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P.
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)
Average reading score is given by the expression,
y = 0.153x + 255.4
Here, x in the number of years past 1970.
To find the year in which the average reading score is 259.378, substitute the value of 'y' in the given expression.
y = 0.153x + 255.4
259.378 = 0.153(x) + 255.4
0.153x = 259.378 - 255.4
0.153x = 3.978
x = 
x = 26
That means given average reading score 259.378 will be 26 years after 1970.
Therefore, 1996 is the year in which the average reading score will be 259.378.

Percent increase/decrease is:
(Change/original amount)x100
(.25/2.35)x100= 10.6%
Simplified answer would be 60k^2+k
and you get that answer by combining like terms, Good Luck!
