Adam wants to create an outdoor rectangular kennel. The length will be three feet more than twice the width. Write and use an equation to find the length and width of the kennel if Adam has 54 feet of fencing. Write and solve an equation to solve this problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 3 + 2w

P= 2w t 2l

= 2w+2(3+2w)

=2w+6+4w

=6w+6 = 54

6w=48

w=8

divide 6 both side

l=3+2(8)=3+16=19

answer

width 8feet and length 19 feet

1,407.5 hours

step-by-step explanation:

we first convert all the time to hours and then sum them up.

there are 24 hours in 1 day, in 58 days, there are 24 x 58 = 1,392 hours.

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, thus, 30 minutes will be equivalent to 30 / 60 = 0.5 hours.

therefore, the number of hours it will take mercury to complete a full rotation is 1,392 + 15 + 0.5 = 1,407.5 hours
