X - unit of length
w,l - the sides of a rectangle
7 : 2 ⇒ 7x : 2x
Perimeter: P = 207cm
Perimeter: P = 2w + 2l
therefore: 2w + 2l = 207 |divide both sides by 2
w + l = 103.5 (cm)
w : l = 7 : 2 ⇒ w : l = 7x : 2x ⇒ w = 7x; l = 2x
subtitute
7x + 2x = 103.5
9x = 103.5 |divide both sides by 9
x = 11.5 (cm)
7x = 7 · 11.5cm = 80.5cm
2x = 2 · 11.5cm = 23cm
w = 80.5cm; l = 23cm
Area = wl
Area: A = 80.5cm · 23cm = 1851.5cm²
<em><u>Problem One</u></em>
Remark
You don't pay a sales tax until cash is exchanged for goods or services.
So what is 70% off
Solution
Sale price = given price * (100% - 70%)
Sale Price = 72 * 30%
Sale Price = 72 * 30/100
Sale Price = 72 * 0.3
Sale Price = 21.6 dollars.
The sales tax is 5% of this amount
21.6 * 5/100 = 1.08
The total cost is = 21.6 + 1.08 = 22.68
Problem Two
If they marked up 100%, effectively they doubled the price.
New Price = old price + 100% of old price.
New Price = 48.50 + 48.50 = 97 dollars.
The sales tax is 6% * 97 = 6/100 * 97 = 5.82
Total Cost = Cost of item + Tax
Total Cost =97 + 5.82
Total Cost = 102.82 Answer <<<<
It is 35/21 it shows that is can turn into a mixed number as well
Answer: (-2,1) OR x=-2,y=1
Step-by-step explanation: Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is nothing in this diagram to suggest any particular values for x and y.
__
If we assume the figure is intended to be a kite, symmetrical about its horizontal diagonal, then each segment is congruent to the one above it.
x = 12
y = 20
