<u>Solving</u>
Knowing that we have the information needed we will first find the perimeter of the rectangle.
Rectangle:
Length: 13cm
Width: 7cm
Formula: L+L+W+W
13+13+7+7 = 40cm
Meaning the perimeter is 40cm and we can use this to find the length of a square. From general knowledge we know that all sides of a square is equal.
So if we divide the 4 sides by 40 we will get our answer.
40 ÷ 4 = 10
So B would be our answer...
<u>Statement</u>
<u />
Therefore the length of a side of the square is 10cm, meaning answer B is correct.
Unit rate means one. So the best way to solve this is using a proportion over one. If there are 258 pencils in 3 purses 258/3 then how many are in one purses x/1. Cross multiply next.
258/3 * x/1. You get 3x and 258. To get the x alone, divide both sides by three. Your answer is 86 pencils in one purse.
The percent of change = ((new value - old value) / old value) × 100%
Our new value = $261.50
Our old value = $382
Plug our values into the equation above.
(($261.50 - $382) / $382) × 100% = -31.54%
Multiply .029 and 46. Add the product to 46.
