Answer:
1 solution (x = 1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 2 - 3x = 3x - 4
First, combine like terms
2 - x = 3x - 4
Add 4 to both sides
6 - x = 3x
Add x to both sides
6 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
1.5 = x
9/20 is greater
9/20 = 0.45

What is the question. I see the answers but do not see the question??
Answer:
L = 68 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter of something you need to add up all the sides
In this case I am assuming Sam's property is a square/rectangle
- Which means the formula for the perimeter is P = 2L + 2W
If L = 2W - 12 and P = 216, we can use these values and plug them into our perimeter equation to solve for w and then solve for l
- 216 = 2(2W -12) + 2W → ditributing the 2 to the (2w - 12) gives us
- 216 = 4W - 24 + 2W → combing like terms gives us
- 216 = 6W - 24 → adding 24 to both sides gives us
- 240 = 6W → dividing both sides by 6 gives us
- 40 ft = W
With the width being solved, we can now plug that value into our length equation
- L = 2(40) - 12 → distributing the 2 to the 40 gives us
- L = 80 - 12 → combing like terms give us
- L = 68 ft
