When you started your homework assignment, your friend already had 6 problems finished. You can
do 2 problems/minute and your friend can do
1 problem/minute. How many minutes will it take
you to catch up to your friend? When you catch up,
how many problems will you have finished?

6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

So for each minute, you would add 2 to your number while increasing your friends number by one.

You'd have 2 problems done when your friend would have 7, then 4 when they're at 8, 6 at 9, 8 at 10, 10 at 11

Then finally when it's been 6 minutes, you'd both have 12 minutes done.

x= -3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify brackets

4 - x - 1 = 6

step 2: simpilfy

3 - x = 6

step 3: subtract 3 from both sides

-x = 6 - 3

step 4: simpilfy 6 - 3

-x = 3

step 5: multiply both sides by -1

x = -3

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36
