The formula for the perimeter is P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>, where <em>w</em> is the width and <em>l</em> is the length. It is given that the width = (x+2) and the length = (x+6). Therefore, we can make this equation:
P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>
64 = 2(x+2) + 2(x+6) ⇒ Distributive property
⇒ 64 = 2x + 4 + 2x + 12 ⇒ Combine like terms
⇒ 64 = 4x + 16 ⇒ Subtract 16 from both sides
⇒ 48 = 4x ⇒ Divide both sides by 4
⇒ x = 12
Then, we use x = 12 and substitute it in to find the length and width
<em>Width</em> = (x+2) = (12+2) = 14
<em>Length</em> = (x+6) = (12+6) = 18
The dimensions of the patio is <u>14 by 18</u>
This equation can be used when comparing ages.
An example to illustrate this:
Assume that adding 6 to 3 times the age of Jack will give us the age of his grandfather.
When translating this into equations, assuming that the age of jack is "a" and the age of his grandfather is "b", we will find that:
b = 6 + 3a
Answer:
21300
Step-by-step explanation:
3 keeps 50 the same, and if the number is below 4 then the number stays the same, if it's 5 and up the number goes up by one digit.
