Answer: Sorry this took so long, here is the photo
Solve for z by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
the rock and I have a great idea to make sure that the following is a process that is a process that you are writing to be a good idea for you
Answer:
L = 68 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter of something you need to add up all the sides
In this case I am assuming Sam's property is a square/rectangle
- Which means the formula for the perimeter is P = 2L + 2W
If L = 2W - 12 and P = 216, we can use these values and plug them into our perimeter equation to solve for w and then solve for l
- 216 = 2(2W -12) + 2W → ditributing the 2 to the (2w - 12) gives us
- 216 = 4W - 24 + 2W → combing like terms gives us
- 216 = 6W - 24 → adding 24 to both sides gives us
- 240 = 6W → dividing both sides by 6 gives us
- 40 ft = W
With the width being solved, we can now plug that value into our length equation
- L = 2(40) - 12 → distributing the 2 to the 40 gives us
- L = 80 - 12 → combing like terms give us
- L = 68 ft
