Answer: 13/15
Step-by-step explanation:
1 2/3 - 4/5
Use LCD or least common denominator:
1 10/15 - 12/15 =
25/15 - 12/15 =
13/15
So we have lengths a and b and are given:
2a+2b = 66 => a+b = 33 => a= 33-b
a*b = 272
plug in one into the other:
(33-b)b = 272 => -b^2 +33b - 272 = 0
Can be factored as (b-16)(b-17) = 0, if you don't "see" this immediately, use the well known abc formula to find b.
So a=16 and b=17 or vice versa.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
Let the width = x
Let the length = x + 5
Equation
2w + 2W = P
Solution
2x + 2(x + 5) = 192 Remove the brackets <=== Answer
2x + 2x + 10 = 192 Combine like terms
4x + 10 = 192 Subtract 10 from both sides
4x = 192 - 10
4x = 182 Divide by 4
4x/4 = 182/4
x = 45.5
Both the negative and positive counterparts of a number have the same absolute value, or distance from 0.
The two numbers are 16 and -16.
They both have the same absolute value, 16.
