You take 130 divide by 2 to get 65 when its 1/3 full. Times 3 to 65 when its 3/3 full meaning full. 165 is your answer.

The cost of having a package delivered has a base fee of $9.70. Every pound over 5 lbs cost an additional $0.46 per pound. Write
FrozenT [24]
The linear model of this case takes the form:

y = a(x-b) + k

<span>The cost of having a package delivered has a base fee of $9.70
this is "k" >>>>>  k=9.7 (fixed amount of fee)

THEN

</span>
<span>Every pound over 5 lbs cost an additional $0.46 per pound

that means: 0.46(x-5)
in other words, if the package weighs foe example 9 pounds, then 9-5=4, it will cost 0.46*4 for these 4 extra pounds

Finally we have the linear form of this: C = 0.46 (W - 5) + 9.7

The area of a patio is 72 square feet. The length of the patio is 1 foot longer than the width. What is the width of the patio?
mote1985 [20]
I know there must be an equation to do this, but there is a simpler way.
Just factor number 72 into two numbers which, when multiplied, equal 72. Two of such numbers are 9 and 8, and you can see that the difference between those two numbers is just 1. So that is the answer to your question - the length of the patio is 9 feet, whereas the width is 8 feet.
