It is the right answer........
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
Let the width = x
Let the length = x + 5
Equation
2w + 2W = P
Solution
2x + 2(x + 5) = 192 Remove the brackets <=== Answer
2x + 2x + 10 = 192 Combine like terms
4x + 10 = 192 Subtract 10 from both sides
4x = 192 - 10
4x = 182 Divide by 4
4x/4 = 182/4
x = 45.5
Answer:
x = 3; y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 5
y = 2x - 4
<em>Isolate the y in the first equation</em>
y = 5 - x
y = 2x - 4
<em>Substitute the values</em>
5 - x = 2x - 4
<em>Isolate the Variable</em>
9 = 3x
<em>Simplify</em>
3 = x
<em>Plug that into the first equation</em>
3 + y = 5
<em>Subtract 3 from both sides</em>
y = 2
