A rectangle has a perimeter of 72 millimeters and a width of 8 millimeters. What is the length of this rectangle?

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the perimeter is the width + width + length + length, we know that there 2 of the 8 millimeter width in the perimeter. So multiply 8 by 2, which is 16. So 16 of the 72 represents both widths. So subtract 16 from 72. You're left with 56, which represents 2 of the length. So divide 56 by 2, and you get one of the length, which is 28.

true

step-by-step explanation:

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
