Given:
The perimeter of a backyard basketball court with four sides is 90 feet.
Two sides of the court are each 20 feet long.
One side of the court is 25 feet long.
To find:
The missing side length of the basketball court.
Solution:
Let x be the missing side length.
The three given sides of the basketball court are 20 feet, 20 feet, 25 feet.
We know that the perimeter is the sum of all sides.
The perimeter of a backyard basketball court with four sides is 90 feet.
Therefore, the missing side length is 25 feet and the correct option is B.
I think it is 29 cause it’s in the 20’s while the others aren’t
The answer would be 96 square feet length
6 x (4)^2 = 96
I hope I am reading the problem right: The price of a mountain bike increased by 20% in the past year. The value is $150. What was the value of the mountain bike last year?
Let's simplify this. One year, there was this radical mountain bike that used to have an unsaid price, <em>x. </em>That year, that price of x increased by 20% more than it was before, or <em>120% times the original value</em>. Because of that, it's now $150.
We can equation this.
1.20x = 150
x = 150/1.2
x = 125
The bike, I believe, cost $125 last year. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem:
The possible values of x in the equation (60)x = 1;
Solution:
Such a problem like this in which the highest power of the unknown is 1 will have just one solution.
60x = 1
To solve this, we take the multiplicative inverse of 60;
the multiplicative inverse of 60 =
Use this inverse to multiply both sides of the expression;
60x = 1 x
x =
