Answer:
Lucey reads 10 pages fewer than Carey.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = L
Width = W
L=8 more than 2W
L = 8 * 2W
L = 16W
Perimeter = 96
perimeter is the lengths of all sides added together
so
2L + 2W = 96
we have
L = 16W
2L + 2W = 96
let's do substitution
put what L = into 2L + 2W = 96
so
2(16W) + 2W = 96
can you rearrange that to get w

Step-by-step explanation:
This means that if a line is perpendicular to a line that has slope m, then the slope of the line is -1 / m. For example, we found that the slope of the line y = (1/2)x + 3 is 1/2. Thus any line that is perpendicular to this line would have slope -2 /1 = -2.
