Let
One Number = x
Second Number =x-10
Third Number=x/2

Sum of three numbers is 50
x+x-10+x/2=50
2x-10+x/2=50
Multiply by 2 both sides
2*(2x-10+x/2)=50*2

4x-20+x=100
5x=100+20
5x=120
x=120/5
x=24

One number = x=24
Second number =x-10=24-10=14
Third number= x/2=24/2= 12

The length of a rectangle 4 yd is longer than its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 68 yd, find its length and width.
natulia [17]

w + 4

------------------------

l l

l l w

l l

------------------------

Perimeter would be the sum of all the sides so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w

Perimeter is 60 yards according to your problem so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w = 60 yds

1.Simplify/combine like terms:

w + 4 + w + w + 4 + w =

4w + 8 =

Now it's a 2-step algebra equation

4w + 8 = 60

2.Subtract 8 on both sides

4w = 56

3.Divide both sides by 4

w = 14
