Hello!
To find the area of a rectangle you do length * width
You can plug in the values you know
(x - 2) * 5 = 30
Divide both sides by 5
x - 2 = 6
Add 2 to both sides
x = 8
The answer is 8
Hope this helps!
It would be in a state of loss because the units manufactured neither reaches nor exceeds the break even point.
2 1/3+ 3 5/6+ 6 2/3
= 7/3+ 23/6+ 20/3
= 14/6+ 23/6+ 40/6
= 77/6
= 12 5/6
The final answer is 12 5/6~
4.80 = 100%
x = 55%
Cross Multiply
100 * x = 55 * 4.80
100x = 264
x = <u>264</u>
100
x = 2.64
Solution: $2.64
