length = 3x - 5 \\ width \:  = x \\ p = 2l + 2w \\ 54 = 2(3x - 5) + 2x \\ 54 = 6x - 10 + 2x \\ 54 = 8x - 10 \\ 64 = 8x \\ x = 8 = width \\ 3(8) - 5 = 24 - 5 = 19 \\ length = 19

WhT is this rounded to the nearest hundredth​
Sergio [31]

Answer:

32.02

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that is in the hundredths place is five. You can remember this by knowing that the decimal point counts as one and all the number to the right of the decimal point count as zero. So 0 is in the tenths place, 1 is in the hundredths place, 5 is in the thousandths place, 6 is in the ten thousandths place and so on. So if you round this number to the nearest hundredth, you'll get 32.02 because if you're rounding a number and the number you're rounding with (knowing that the number you're rounding will always be rounded with the number to the right of it) is 5 or greater than 5, that number that you have to round will go up one unit.

I hope this helped!

Solve the system with elimination 4x+3y=1 -3x-6y=3
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

x = 1, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have the two equations:

4x+3y=1 and -3x - 6y = 3, we can look at which variable will be easiest to eliminate.

y looks like it might be easy to get rid of, we just have to multiply 4x+3y=1  by 2 and y is gone (as -6y + 6y = 0).

So let's multiply the equation 4x+3y=1  by 2.

2(4x + 3y = 1)\\8x + 6y = 2

Now we can add these equations

8x + 6y = 2\\-3x-6y=3\\

------------------------

5x = 5

Dividing both sides by 5, we get x = 1.

Now we can substitute x into an equation to find y.

4(1) + 3y = 1\\4 + 3y = 1\\3y = -3\\y = -1

Hope this helped!

If john makes a contribution to a charity fund at school, the average contribution size will increase by 50% reaching $75 per pe
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Z= 75*6 -250=200

So then the correct answer is B. $200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation

Let X be the average contribution size before John makes his contribution.

Let Y be the total contribution size before John makes his contribution.

Let Z be John's contribution.

We know that for this case $ 75 represent the original average amount before the contribution with 50% increase so we can set up the following equation in order to find the original average amount

1.5 X = 75

And solvong for X we got:

X = \frac{75}{1.5}= 50

Now we can find the total contribution before the donation with the following proportion:

\frac{50}{1}= \frac{Y}{5}

Y = 250

And then with the formula of average taking in count the 6 values we can find the size of donation Z like this:

\frac{Y+Z}{6}= 75

\frac{250+Z}{6}= 75

Z= 75*6 -250=200

So then the correct answer is B. $200.
