Answer:

A rectangle have 2 equal sides whilst the other 2 is also equal

So we can make length “l”

Whilst we can make width “w”

So the formula for a perimter is

2l+2w=p

In this case it’s 70

Now the length is 3 in longer then the width.

So l= 3+w

We can subsitute that in so we can solve the equation now

2(3+w) + 2w = 70

4w+6=70

Now solve

4w+6=70

4w= 64

w= 16

So width is 16

Lenght is 3 more then with so 16+3=19

Width is 16

Length is 19

You need to add two mixed numerals.
One is positive and one is negative.
To add a positive number and a negative number, first take the absolute value of both, making them both positive. Then subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. Finally, the sign of the answer is the same sign as the number that has the larger absolute value.

The numbers are -4 5/8 and 2 1/8

Take absolute values:
|-4 5/8| = 4 5/8
|2 1/8| = 2 1/8

Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value.

4 5/8 - 2 1/8 = 2 4/8 = 2 1/2

The greater absolute value is 4 5/8.
Since the number with the larger absolute value was -4 5/8, a negative number, the answer is negative, -2 1/2

-4 5/8 + 2 1/8 = - 2 1/2

Compare 2/8 to 1/2 write to explain you step by step

Softa [21]

Answer:

2/8 is one-half as much as 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the denominators to the same number.

2/8 is already okay

1/2=4/8

now

2/8 would be one-half as much as 4/8

What 2 numbers multiply to be -14 and add to be -3

Svetach [21]

Xy = -14
x + y = -3

$xy = -14$
$\frac{xy}{x} = \frac{-14}{x}$
$y = \frac{-14}{x}$

$x + y = -3$
$x + \frac{-14}{x} = -3$
$\frac{x^{2}}{x} + \frac{-14}{x} = -3$
$\frac{x^{2} - 14}{x} = -3$
$x^{2} - 14 = -3x$
$x^{2} + 3x - 14 = 0$
$x = \frac{-(3) \± \sqrt{(3)^{2} - 4(1)(-14)}}{2(1)}$
$x = \frac{-3 \± \sqrt{9 + 56}}{2}$
$x = \frac{-3 \± \sqrt{65}}{2}$
$x = \frac{-3 \± 8.06}{2}$
$x = -1.5 \± 4.03$
$x = -1.5 + 4.03$ $or$ $x = -1.5 - 4.03$
$x = 2.53$ $or$ $x = -5.53$

  x + y = -3
2.53 + y = -3
- 2.53 - 2.53
  y = -5.53
  (x, y) = (2.53, -5.53)

x + y = -3
  -5.53 + y = -3
+ 5.53   + 5.53
  y = 2.53
  (x, y) = (-5.53, 2.53)

The two numbers that multiply to -14 and add up to -3 are -5.53 and 2.53.

8 and 1/4 + 3 and 5/6

k0ka [10]

Answer:

12 1/12

Step-by-step explanation: so, we have to make the bottom number the same as eachother or we will not be able to add effectively. So the first number that both 4 and 6 go into is 12, as you can see if we count by the numbers to get to the answer

4,8,12

6,12

So, now that we have that part figured out we would then have to multiply the top the same amount as we multiplied the bottom. So 1/4x3 and 5/6x2

So we would multiply both the top and the bottom the same amount.

1/4x3=3/12

5/6x2=10/12

So now that we have that figured out everything else is pretty straight forward.

We would add the whole numbers with eachother and the fractions with eachother.

8+3=11

3/12+10/12=13/12

so we can see that it would equal, 11 and 13/12 or 12 and 1/12
