Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 + 5/8
= (2+5)/8
= 7/8
12% of 1200 is 144, so subtract that. you get 1056. 12% of that is 126.72, so you subtract that. you get 929.28. 12% of that is 111.5136 and you subtract that. and so on and so forth. the answer would be 557.
Hey!
------------------------------------------------
They already give us the slope, so we can solve the y-intercept.
We can use (3, -2).
y = 8x + b
-2 = 8(3) + b
-2 = 24 + b
-2 - 24 = 24 + b - 24
-26 = b
------------------------------------------------
Hence, the answer is

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
You can use factors to solve. Determine all the factor pairs of 24, find the two that are two numbers apart.
1, 24 X
2, 12 X
3, 8 X
4, 6 YES!
Algebraic way to solve using Quadratics:
l = 2 + w
A = lw
A = (2 + w)w Substitute (2 + w) for l
24 = (2 + w)w Substitute 24 in for the area
24 = 2w + w^2 Distribute
w^2 + 2w - 24 = 0 Set equal to 0 (put in standard form)
(w + 6) (w - 4) = 0 Factor
w + 6 = 0 and w - 4 = 0 Set each factor equal to 0.
So w= -6 or w = 4 ... -6 makes no sense for a length! So the width must be 4 and the length will be 4 + 2, which is 6.
You can divide by the same number every time
