Let "a" and "b" represent the values of the first and second purchases, respectively.
0.40*(original price of "a") = $10
(original price of "a") = $10/0.40 = $25.00 . . . . divide by 0.40 and evaluate
a = (original price of "a") - $10 . . . . . . Julia paid the price after the discount
a = $25.00 -10.00 = $15.00
At the other store,
$29 = 0.58b
$29/0.58 = b = $50 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of b and evaluate
Then Julia's total spending is
a + b = $15.00 +50.00 = $65.00
Julia spent $65 in all at the two stores.
Answer:
11 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say that w = width of the rectangle, to start. If the length of the rectangle is 3 meters greater than 2 times the width, the length of the rectangle is equal to 3 + 2w.
The perimeter of the rectangle is 2 * length of rectangle + 2 * width of the rectangle. With the perimeter being equal to 30 and width being w and length being 2w+3:
The perimeter of the rectangle is 2(w) + 2(2w+3) = 30.
We first need to find out w first, which will give us the width of the rectangle. Taking it step by step, we get:
2w + 4w + 6 = 30
6w + 6= 30
6w = 24 which is done by subtracting both sides by 6 to put the variables on one side and the values on the other side
w = 4 which is done by dividing 6 on both sides
Ultimately, this gets width to be 4 meters. Now that we found the width, we need to plug w = 4 into the equation we set up for length which is 2w+3.
That being said, the ANSWER is:
length of rectangle = 2(4)+3 = 11 meters
Hope this helps! :)
30 x 28= 840
