Answer:
The answer is 23.
Step-by-step explanation:
Our equation here is (2x + y) + 5.
If x=4, and y=10, let's plug that in into our variables, and simplify!
[2(4) + (10)] + 5
= [8+10] + 5
=[18] +5
=23
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - 5 = 
Multiply through by 8 ( the LCM of 4 and 8 ) to clear the fractions
6x - 40 = 3 ( add 40 to both sides )
6x = 43 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x =
I am going to show you how easy this is. Once you understand, you will be able to do this forever.

Assuming the side of the rectangle are (L) length and (W) width, the perimeter:
2L + 2W = 234
:
"the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide,", the equation for this statement:
L = 2W
:
In the first equation, we can replace L with 2W, then we have
2(2W) + 2W = 234
4W + 2W = 234
6W = 234
Divide both sides by 6
W = 234%2F6
W = 39 meters is the width
:
Remember it said the length is twice the width, therefore:
L = 2(39)
L = 78 meters is the length
:
:
Check this by finding the perimeter with these values
2(78) + 2(39) =
156 + 78 = 234
