An odd number. That's because the formula for the perimeter is

P = 2* (L + W)

Multiplying by 2 is never going to produce an odd number.  The question is much trickier than it looks. What happens when you have a square with sides of 7.

The area = s^2

Area = 7 * 7

Area = 49 and that's odd. But can you get an odd perimeter? The answer is no. The perimeter of a square is 4s

P = 4s. If s = 7

P = 4*7

P = 28 which is even. If there is another answer, I'm unaware of it.

A: P = 2*(6 + 8) = 2*14 = 28 A is a correct Perimeter.

B: P = 2*(3 + 16) = 2*19 = 38 B is a correct Perimeter.

C:P = 2*? Can't find anything. C is the answer.

D:P = 2*(1 + 48) = 2*49 = 98. D is correct.

Answer: C

A cell phone and phone case cost $110 in total. The cell phone costs $100 more
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

p + c = 110

p = c + 100

c + 100 + c = 110

2c + 100 = 110

2c = 110 - 100

2c = 10

c = 10/2

c = 5 .......cost of the phone case

p = c + 100

p = 5 + 100

p = 105 <=== cost of the phone

Gnesinka [82]

Fishie's name is fishy.  

We know Mr. Fishie spent $15 on a tank.  His 10 fish cost 10*$f.  His total is:

Total =15 + 10*f

His change after 2 $20 would be:

$40 - ($15 - $10f), or
