Answer:

Mark me as brainlist

Step-by-step explanation:

P = Perimeter            

L = Length          

W = Width

Perimeter of rectangle = L + L + W + W        

or P = 2L + 2W

You know:

P = 36 inches

L = 2W          [length is(=) 2 times it's width]

W = ?

P = 2L + 2W    

Substitute/plug in what you know, plug in 2W for L since L = 2W

36 = 2(2W) + 2W         Simplify

36 = 4W + 2W

36 = 6W        Divide 6 on both sides

6 = W              Now that you know the width, you can find the length:

L = 2W

L = 2(6)

L = 12

L = 12 in

W = 6 in

PROOF

P = 2(12) + 2(6)

P = 24 + 12

P = 36

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle not marked in the top triangle is 40 degrees since it is an isosceles triangle.  That makes the angle opposite it in the other triangle 40 degrees since they are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal.

The bottom triangle has 3 angles that sum to 180 degrees,  The other angle not marked is also y since it is an isosceles triangle.

40 + y +y = 180

Subtract 40 from each side and combine like terms

40-40 +2y = 180-40

2y = 140

Divide by 2

2y/2 = 140/2

y = 70
