Respuesta :

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will be:

x - (10% of x) = 27

x - 0.1x = 30

0.9x = 30

Divide by 0.9

x = 30

The number is 30

Second question:

Length = 2x - 3

Width = x

Perimeter = 72

Perimeter = 2(l + w)

= 2(2x - 3 + x) = 72

4x - 6 + 2x = 72

6x = 72 + 6

6x = 78

w = 78/6 = 13

The width is 13 meters
