to find the area of a rectangle is LxW=A
plug in the given numbers you have
L = 7
W = x-8
A = 42
7 * x-8 = 42
7x-56= 42
solve for X
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(-3/4)x + 9 = (-1/2)x + 8
9 - 8 = (-1/2)x + (3/4)x
1 = (1/4)x
x = 4
y = (-3/4)4 + 9
y = -3 + 9
y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: a slice of pizza cost $1.25 and a 12-ounce cola cost $0.50.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let slice of pizza cost x and a 12-ounce cola cost y.
Then Sara's order cost: 2x+y=3
and Sydney's order cost: 3x+2y=4.75
From the first equation we have: y=3-2x and put this to the second equation:
3x+2(3-2x)=4.75
3x+6-4x=4.75
x=1.25
y=3-1.25*2=0.50
Answer: a slice of pizza cost $1.25 and a 12-ounce cola cost $0.50.
