Yes you can simplify an improper fraction
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as
P = 2l + 2w ( l is the length and w the width )
perimeter of rectangle A = 2(7) + 2(5) = 14 + 10 = 24 in
perimeter of rectangle B = 2(4x - 3) + 2x = 8x - 6 + 2x = 10x - 6 in
Equating the two gives
10x - 6 = 24 ( add 6 to both sides )
10x = 30 ( divide both sides by 10 )
x = 3
Thus
length of rectangle B = 4x - 3 = 4(3) - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9 in
Width of rectangle B = x = 3 in
It is: you use distribution method to solve the problem.
14m + 42 + 56m
Then you combine like terms:
14m + 56m + 42
Then you add
70m + 42 is your answer
Answer:
Retail Price = $155
Step-by-step explanation:
The retail price is 55% MORE than the manufacturer buying price.
The manufacturer buying price is $100. So the retail price would be 55% MORE.
Firstly,
55% in decimal is:
55/100 = 0.55
Now 55% of 100 is:
0.55 * 100 = $55
So, the retail price is $55 MORE, so the retail price is:
100 + 55 = $155
Retail Price = $155
