6 * scale factor = 120
6x = 120
x = 120/6
x = 20 <== the scale factor

The perimeter of a rectangle is 40 inches. If the length is four less than twice the width, find the dimensions and area
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

<u>L = 12 inches and W = 8 inches</u>

<u>Area = 96 in^2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter(P) = 2(width) + 2(length)

Let W = width and L = length

P = 2W + 2L

L = 2W - 4

Substitute:  P = 2W + 2(2W - 4)

P = 6W - 8

P = 40 inches

40 = 6W - 8

6W = 48

W = 8

L = 2W - 4

L = 2(8) - 4

L = 12

<u>L = 12 inches and W = 8 inches</u>

<u>===============================</u>

Check to see if this works:  

P = 2W + 2L

P = 2(12) + 2(8)

P = 24 + 16

P = 40 inches  <u>YES</u>

<u>========</u>

Area = WxL

Area = (12)*(8)

<u>Area = 96 in^2</u>

A pair of basketball shoes's normal price is $120. Jordan bought it at a discount of 10%. He had to pay 8% tax on the discounted
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

$17.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If the shoes are discounted at 10%, the price would be 90% of the original price

Discounted price = 0.9 x 120 = 108

Tax increases the price of the good. so, the discounted price would increase by 8%

1.08 x 108 =116.64

If Jordan pays 15% as a down payment, he would pay :

0.15 x 116.64 = 17.496
