Answer:
x = 2y
x - 8 = y + 6
replace x by 2y in the second equation
2y - 8 = y + 6
y - 8 = 6
y = 14
x = 2*14 = 28
Kendra had $28 and Kareem had $14.
The perimeter of Jake window is 16x - 2 inches
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that height of Jake window is 5x - 3 inches
Also given that width is 3x + 2 inches
To find: perimeter of Jake window
We know that, in general a window is of rectangular shape
<em><u>The perimeter of rectangle is given as:</u></em>
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)
Substituting the values we get,
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(5x - 3 + 3x + 2)
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(8x - 1) = 16x - 2
Hence, the perimeter of the window is 16x – 2 inches
