Answer: NP = 9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal.
If the length of the longer side is MN, it means that the length of the two opposite longer sides is 2MN.
If the length of the shorter side is NP, it means that the length of the two opposite shorter sides is 2NP.
The perimeter is 2MN + 2NP
If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, it means that
2MN + 2NP = 68- - - - - - - - - - - -1
In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. It means that
MN = 2NP + 7- - - - - - - - - - -2
Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes
2(2NP + 7) + 2NP = 68
4NP + 14 + 2NP = 68
4NP + 2NP = 68 - 14
6NP = 54
NP = 54/6
NP = 9 inches
70/6 × 18/4
70 * 18/6*4. cross out 18 and 6.
= 70*3/4
= 35 * 2 * 3/ 2*2
= 35*3/2
= 105/2
= 52.5
OR
52 1/2.
Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable. which got me x=0
Answer:
$3.296
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest=PRT/100
P=Principal=$20.600
R=rate=8%
T=time=2yrs
=20.600×8/100×2
=$3.296
Let's use a for number of days when he shot 50 shots and b for number of days when he shot 100 shots.
We have:
a + b = 20
We also know that he shot total of 1250 shots:
50a + 100 b = 1250
We have two equations. We can solve them for a and b. Let's rearange first equation for a:
a= 20 - b
We insert this into second equation:
50 * (20 - b ) + 100b = 1250
1000 - 50b + 100b = 1250
50b = 250
b = 5
a = 20 - 5
a = 15
Mark shot 100 shots on 5 days.
