Dividing $72,000 by 4, each child received $18,000

To calculate the percent of a number, we must turn the percent into its decimal form and multiply the number by it. To turn a number into a percent, you can simply move the decimal 2 places to the right. That means that 25% is equal to .25. Now, as stated, we multiply 72,000 by it. That shows that each child will get $18,000.00.

20 POINTS!!!! If eight is added to twice a number and the sum is multiplied by five result is the same as if the number is multi
Sauron [17]
<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -2.</u></h3>

5(2x + 8) = -8x + 4

<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>

10x + 40 = -8x + 4

<em><u>Add 8x to both sides.</u></em>

18x + 40 = 4

<em><u>Subtract 40 from both sides.</u></em>

18x = -36

<em><u>Divide both sides by 18</u></em>

x = -2

The width of a rectangle is 3x – 3. Its perimeter is 10x + 6. Find the length of the rectangle.
maks197457 [2]

Step-by-step explanation:

The first possibility

2(width) + 2(length) = perimeter

2(3x-3) + 2(length) = 10x+6

6x - 6 + 2(length) = 10x+6

2(length) = 4x + 12

length = 2x + 6

The second possibility.

rondhesha chodado in The width of a rectangle is 3x – 3. Its perimeter is 10x + 6. Find the length of the rectangle.

So you have the perimeter, P, can be found by doing u+u+v+v.

Simplifying gives:

P=2u+2v.

You are given the width is (3x-3).  Choose this to be u or v but not both.

Perimeter is given a (10x+6).

Let's plug this in:

(10x+6)=2(3x-3)+2v

We are solving for v.

First step: Distribute where you can:

10x+6=6x-6+2v

Now we want to isolate v.

So we will need to subtract (6v-6) on both sides:

 (10x+6)=2v

- (6x -6)

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

4x+12  =2v

The right hand side contains a factor of 2.

The left hand side does too since 4x+12 can be factored as 2(2x+6).

2(2x+6)=2v

This implies v is 2x+6.

Let's check our work.

We have two sides with measurement 2x+6:  (2x+6)+(2x+6)=4x+12

We have two sides with measurement 3x-3:   (3x-3)+(3x-3)=  6x-6

Let's add those sums to find the perimeter:                             10x+6

That is the intended

How can I create a word problem with the following expressions <br><br> 15+2d<br><br> 200-4m
Alenkasestr [34]
For the first expression
15 + 2d
A possible word problem would be this:
A person saves $2 per day of money. Before he started saving, he had $15 dollars set aside. Look for the expression that expresses the total amount of money saved in terms of the number of days passed

The second expression is
200 - 2m
A possible word problem would be this:
The distance from school to the park is 200m. A kid riding a bike is traveling at a speed of 2m/s from the school to the park. Write an expression for the distance remaining between the park and the kid.<span />
