Equation for Perimeter of a rectangle: Perimeter = 2W + 2L
<h3>Defining the variables, let</h3>
<h3>Width = x</h3><h3>Length = 2x+3 (3 more than twice the width)</h3>
<h3>Plugging everything into the equation</h3>
<h3>30= 2(x) + 2(2x+3) using the distributive property,</h3>
<h3>30=2x+4x+6 combining like terms</h3>
<h3>30=6x+6 subtracting 6 from both sides,</h3>
<h3>24=6x divide both sides by 6</h3>
<h3>4=x This means that the width is 4 m.</h3>
<h3>To get the length, use the expression L=2x+3 and plug in x = 4 that was already solved for</h3>
<h3>L=2(4)+3</h3>
<h3>L=8+3 = 11 m</h3>
<h3>So the dimensions of the rectangle are width is 4 m and length is 11 m.</h3>
Answer:a
Step-by-step explanation:The temperature rose by 80 so up the number line and dropped 20 so down the number line to 60
Answer:
1/4 or 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets plug x and y into the equation. We now have 3/12, which would be equal to 1/4 or 0.25
If x=girls,
then we have 3x boys.
We know that all children are boys+girls, so x+3x, which is 4x and 4x is 48, so one x is 12.
So there are 12 girls and 36 boys.
