Let
be the length of the rectangle and
be the width. In the problem it is given that
. It is also given that the area
. Substituting in the length in terms of width, we have
. Using the zero product property,
. Solving these we get the width
. However, it doesn't make sense for the width to be negative, so the width must be
. From that we can tell the length
.
The game costs 25 dollars. If 6/5 = 30 then 5/5 would be 25
Hello.
To find the answer of this question, you need to find 6% of 598.
6 / 100 = 0.06. 0.06 x 598 = 35.88. So now all you have to do is subtract 35.88 from 598. 598 - 35.88 = 562.12.
So the new price of the television is 562.12.
Have a great day! :)
The formula for perimeter is P = 2length + 2width (P = 2L + 2W)
You know that the length is 4 more yards then twice the width. In equation form this would be:
length = 4 + 2w
Plug what you know into the perimeter formula:
26 = 2(4 + 2w) + 2w
First you must distribute the 2 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be 4 and 2w...
26 = (2 * 4) + (2 * 2w) + 2w
26 = 8 + 4w + 2w
Now you must combine like terms. This means that first numbers with the same variables (w) must be combined...
26 = 8 + 4w + 2w
4w + 2w = 6w
26 = 8 + 6w
Now bring 8 to the left side by subtracting 8 to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 8 is being added on the right side, subtraction (the opposite of addition) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.
26 - 8 = 8 - 8 + 6w
18 = 0 + 6w
18 = 6w
To isolate w divide 6 to both sides
18 / 6 = 6w / 6
w = 3
We know that the width is 3 ft
Now you must find the length. To do this plug 3 where you see w in the equation:
length = 4 + 2w
l = 4 + 2(3)
l = 4 + 6
l = 10
We know that length is 10 ft
Letter B. is the correct answer
Hope this helped!

Assuming this is a system of equations, here is how to find x.
2x + 3y = 45
x + y = 10
Multiply x + y = 10 by 2 so you are able to use the elimination method.
2x + 3y = 45
2x + 2y = 20
Subtract.
y = 25
Now that we've found y, we can plug it in to find x.
x + 25 = 10
Subtract 25 from both sides.
x = -15
