Mary is building a rectangle enclosure for all her chickens. The length of the enclosure is 22.5m and the width is 13.2m. If she already has 30m of fencing, how much more does she need?

41.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

22.5 + 13.2 = 35.7

35.7 × 2 = 71.4m (because of the other 2 sides of the rectangle)

71.4-30=41.4m

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!
