I'm not sure which formula to use because it's not indicated, but I'll just solve for x in both equations.

3x + 7 = 19

First I would subtract 7 on both sides:

3x = 12

Then I would divide 3 on both sides:

x = 4

x - 1 = 5

I would just add 1 on both sides:

x = 6

Hope I helped :)

The ratio of the width to the length of a rectangle is 2:3, respectively. Answer each of the following. a By what percent would

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The percentage increase in Area of rectangle is 200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The ratio of the width to the length of a rectangle is 2:3

Let The length of rectangle = 2 x

Let The width of rectangle = 3 x

∵ Area of rectangle = length × width

So, $A_1$ = 2 x × 3 x

Or, $A_1$ = 6 x²

<u>Again</u>

The increased length of rectangle = 2 x + 2 x = 4 x

The increase width of rectangle = 3 x + 50% of 3 x

I.e The increase width of rectangle = 3 x + 1.5 x = 4.5 x

∵ Increased Area of rectangle = increased length × increased width

Or, $A_2$ = 4 x × 4.5 x = 18 x²

So, The percentage increase in area = $\dfrac{A_2 - A_1}{A_1}$ × 100

Or, The percentage increase in area = $\frac{18 x^{2}-6x^{2}}{6x^{2}}$ × 100

Or , The percentage increase in area = $\dfrac{12}{6}$ × 100

∴ The percentage increase in area = 200

Hence, The percentage increase in Area of rectangle is 200% Answer

There are 550 students at Martin Middle School. One bundred and eighty- seven students walk to school. what percent of the stude

Anvisha [2.4K]

For a question like this, all you have to do is remember that a percentage is simply a fraction expressed as a decimal. So, all we have to do is:
$\frac{187}{550}$ , and then multiply our decimal answer by 100 to get the percentage:
$\frac{187}{550}$ = 0.34
0.34 x 100 = 34
Therefore 34% of the students walk to school.
I hope this helped and remember to please try and understand the maths that got the answer, not just writing the answer down :))

The measure of an angle is 32.9°. What is the measure of its complementary angle?

zubka84 [21]

Answer: 57.1

Step-by-step explanation: To be complementary the angles have to add up to make a sum of 90.

90 - 32.9 = 57.1

The angles are 32.9 and 57.1.
