Answer:

The width of the carpet is 12 inches and the length of the carpet is 120 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

2w+2(w+108)=264

^We can distribute first^

Distributing would result in:

2w+2w+216=264

Then we would combine like terms, which would result in:

4w + 216 = 264

Then we solve the equation.

4w + 216 = 264 \\ \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:     \frac{ - 216 =  - 216}{4w = 48}  \\   \\  \frac{4w}{4}  =  \frac{48}{4}  \\ w = 12

Since the width of the carpet is 12 (as we figured out). The statement said that "The length of the carpet is 108 inches more than the width."

So now we add 108 to 12 to figure out the length.

108 + 12 = 120

The length of the carpet is 120 inches.

HELP THIS is due in 30 mins Renaldo described the translation of the graph of f(x) = x2 related to g(x) = (x + 2)2 - 6 as 2 unit
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that we need to use the equation y=a(x-h)^2+k. This means that h=-2 instead of 2 otherwise it would've been (x-2)^2-6. So Renaldo made the mistake of identifying h as 2 instead of -2. The second mistake Renaldo made is that since k=-6, there should be a vertical shift of 6 units down not 2.
