The length of a rectangle is 12 inches longer than the width. find the length and width if the perimeter is 184 inches.

Perimeter = 2l + 2w

Divide 184 by 4

184/4 = 46

Subtract by 6

46 - 6 = 40

Add by 6

46 + 6 = 52

The length is 52, and the width is 40.

We can verify by plugging these values into the original equation.

52*2 + 40*2 = 184

the image of (6, 9) under a dilation is (4, 6). the scale factor is

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2
