Agarden is shaped like a rectangle whose perimeter is 68ft. the length is 6 ft more than the width. find the length and width

p = 68 ft

p = 2l + 2w

l = 6 + w

68 = 2(6 + w) + 2w

68 = 12 + 4w

56 = 4w

w = 14

l = 6 + 14

l = 20

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
