The width of a rectangular sandbox is two less than twice the length. The perimeter of the sandbox is 26 feet. Identify the length and width of the sandbox. (Remember 2l+2w=Perimeter)

Answers

Answer 1

[tex]l = 5 \\ w = 8[/tex]

5 + 5 + 8 + 8 = 26 and since 5 x 2 - 2 = 8 it matches with the problem

Answer 2
let’s say the length is x. That would mean that the width is 2x-2.

using this we would have this equation:
2x+ 2(2x-2) = 26

distribute

2x+ 4x-4= 26

add like terms

6x-4=30

add 4 to both sides

6x=30

divide

x= 5

since x is our length, the length is 5

now for the width, use the 2x-2 equation and plug in x. you should get 8

l= 5
w=8

i hope this helps!!

This is also with the other one sorry I just don't get it:
-8x = -64
50 = -(1/8)p
-90 = 8 + y
if someone can help me please help me.

Answers

the first one would be 8 becuase 8 times -8 would be -64. i don’t know the second one but the last one is -82 becuase 8 plus -82 equals -90.

Answer:

x = 8

p = -400

y = -98

Step-by-step explanation

-8x = -64

Divide both sides by -8

x = 8

50 = -(1/8)p

Divide both sides by -(1/8)

p = 50/-(1/8)

p = -400

-90 = 8+y

Subtract 8 from each side

y = -98

Ben wants to go fishing on the lake

A boat rents for $12 per hour, and a rod and reel rent for $20 per day.

If Ben wants to spend no more than $80, how many hours can he soend fishing on the boat

Answers

Answer: Ben can only rent the boat for 5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to set up an equation. It would be 20 + 12h = 80

20+12x=80

12x=80-20

Then divide both sides 12x=60

And you get 5

Ben can spend at most 6 hours (72 dollars) being on the boat.

Now if you wanna include the rod and reel, Ben can spend 29 hours (24 hours from the rod and reel, and 5 hours on the boat) Which all adds up to 80

The length of a rectangle is 3 1/6 cm longer than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 15 1/3 cm. What are the width and length of this rectangle?
PLS HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

length 4.96 cm(4 24/25) Width 1.80 cm( 1 8/10 cm)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the perimeter is 15 1/3 cm and the length is 3 1/6 cm longer than the width. Then first you have to take away 6 1/8. How did I get that? Because since a rectangle has 2 sides of length and 2 sides of width, I added 3 1/6+3 1/6. When we subtract the whole number you get 7. And when you subtract the fractions you get 5/24. I got that by doing 1/3x8  and 1/8x3. So i get a deminitor of 24. Then you have to divide 7 5/24 into 4 parts, since there is four sides. Which then you get ~1.80. That means the width is abut 1.80. And if you add the 3 1/6 back on the length it will be about 4.96.
