First, we need to know how much profit in dollar value by this method
profit = percentage × whole price
Plug in the numbers to the formula above
profit = percentage × whole price
profit = 40% × 25
profit = 0.40 × 25
profit = 10
The profit Daniel gets is $10
Second, add the original price and the profit together and you'll find the new price.
new price = original price + profit
new price = $25 + $10
new price = $35
Daniel sold the computer game for $35
By substitution,
1.5x - 6 = -4.5x + 21
6x = 27
x = 4.5
Hence, y = 1.5(4.5) - 6 = 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:
I assume they intersect at a right angle (90°).
then the intersection is a rectangle with one side being 12 m, and the diagonal being 13 m long.
the diagonal is the Hypotenuse (baseline) of a right-angled triangle with the length and the width of the rectangle as legs.
so, by using Pythagoras we have
diagonal² = length² + width²
13² = 12² + width²
169 = 144 + width²
25 = width²
width = 5 m
so, Oakdale Avenue is 5 m wide.
