The value of side length x is equal 6.05 in

<h3>Perimeter of a Square</h3>

The perimeter of a square is given as the sum of the total sides in the square or 4 multiplied by the side length of the square since they all have equal sides.

Mathematically, this can be written as

$P = 4 *L\\P = 4l\\$

L = side length

In this given question, the side length is equal to x and the perimeter of the square is given as 24.2in.

Let's substitute the values

$P = 4L\\24.2 = 4L\\but l = x\\24.2 = 4x\\x = 6.05in$

The side length of the square is equal to 6.05in

Company A had a loss of $255 in January. Company B had a profit of $162 in January. What was the difference between the profits

Julli [10]

Answer:

The difference of the profit of two companies is $ 417

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The company A loss amount in January = $ 255

The company B profit amount in January = $ 162

Let the difference between there profits = x

So, x = company B profit - ( company A profit)

I.e x = company B profit - ( - company A loss)

Or, x = $ 255 + $162

∴ x = $ 417

Hence The difference of the profit of two companies is $ 417 . Answer

Judy worked 8 hours and Ben worked 10 hours. Their combined pay was $80. When Judy worked 9 hours and Ben worked 5 hours, their

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Judy = $5/hr

Ben = $4/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Judy's hours at work - x

Ben's hours at work - y

8x + 10y = 80

9x + 5y = 65

Given these two equations above, we get:

10y = 80 - 8x, which means y = 8 - 0.8x.

Substitute y in the second equation with 8 - 0.8x, so we have:

9x + 5 (8 - 0.8x) = 65

9x + 40 - 4x = 65

5x = 25

x = 5

Come back to the first equation, substitute x:

8*5 + 10y = 80

10y = 80 - 40

y = 4

the base of the founten is rectangular . its dimention 1 2/3 feet by 2 2/3 feet . what is the area of the base of the founten

Montano1993 [528]

The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle. In this case, the length (the longer side) is 2 2/3 feet while the width (shorter side) is 1 2/3 feet. To multiply fraction, first convert mixed numbers into improper fractions:

2 2/3 = 8/3
1 2/3 = 5/3
Multiplying the two fractions yield:
8/3 x 5/3 = 40/9 ft2

The final answer is 40/9 ft2 or 4 4/9 ft2.
