For 300 more square feet the rent is $150 more.
Rent per additional square foot is 150/300 or 0.50.
For an additional 400 square feet the rent is an additional 400(0.50) or $200.
The rent for 1500 feet squared office is $1325.
Aimme is right. All the sides are obtuse. They do not equal exactly 90 degrees.
In step 2 .. because when you multiple by -4 in step 1 , the equation in step 2 will be ( -4y =-16 + 8z)
Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24
I think it’s (3,4) the third answer
