Answer:
x = 2.5 inches. Or
x = 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Length: 7 + 2x
Width: 5 + 2x
Note that you have to add x at each end of the picture and onto each part of the width.
The entire area is 120 square inches.
Formula
L*W = Area
(2x + 7)(2x + 5) = 120
Solution
4x^2 + 10x + 14x + 35 = 120 Subtract 120 from both sides. Add xs
4x^2 + 24x + 35 - 120 = 0
4x^2 + 24x - 85 = 0 Factor
(2x + 17)(2x - 5)
2x + 17 has no meaning. It will give - 8.5 which is not possible.
2x - 5 =0
2x = 5 Divide by 2
x = 5/2
x = 2.5

Answer:
The mother (Rhoda) is 46 years old.
The daughter (Tenica) is 18 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of the mother (Rhoda) be m
Let the age of the daughter (Tenica) be d.
The sum of Rhonda and her daughter Tenica’s age is 64. This can be written as:
m + d = 64 ... (1)
The difference in their ages is 28. This can be written as:
m – d = 28 ... (2)
From the above illustrations, the equation obtained are:
m + d = 64 ... (1)
m – d = 28 ... (2)
Solving by elimination method:
Add equation 1 and 2 together
. m + d = 64
+ m – d = 28
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
2m = 92
Divide both side by 2
m = 92/2
m = 46
Substitute the value of m into any of the equation to obtain the value of d. Here, we shall use equation 1
m + d = 64
m = 46
46 + d = 64
Collect like terms
d = 64 – 46
d = 18
Therefore, the mother (Rhoda) is 46 years old and the daughter (Tenica) is 18 years old.
Answer:
The number of games for Xbox is about 155
The number of games for PS4 is about 175
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us find the numbers of games for Xbox and for PS4 game
∵ There are 330 video games in the store
∵ 47% of them were for Xbox
- Multiply 47% by 330
∴ The number of games for Xbox = 47% × 330
∵ 47% = 
∴ The number of games for Xbox =
× 330
∴ The number of games for Xbox = 155. 1
∴ The number of games for Xbox ≅ 155
∵ 53% of them were for PS4
- Multiply 53% by 330
∴ The number of games for PS4 = 53% × 330
∵ 53% = 
∴ The number of games for PS4 =
× 330
∴ The number of games for PS4 = 174.9
∴ The number of games for PS4 ≅ 175
The correct answer is B) 9 m.
The measure of the sector of circle R is 32π/9 m. The measure of the central angle is 80°. This means that the sector is 80/360 = 2/9 of the circle. The area of a circle is given by A=πr², so the area of the sector is A=2/9πr². To verify this, 2/9π(4²) = 2/9π(16) = 32π/9.
Using this same formula for circle S, we will work backward to find the radius:
18π = 2/9πr²
Multiply both sides by 9:
18*9π = 2πr²
162π = 2πr²
Divide both sides by 2π:
162π/2π = 2πr²/2π
81 = r²
Take the square root of both sides:
√81 = √r²
9 = r
