Let the house be sold for = x

Amount paid to real estate agent = $11825

This value is 5.5% of the value of the house sold for.

\frac{5.5}{100}*x=11825

5.5x=1182500

x=215000

Hence, the house was sold for $215000

A plastic box has a length 4 cm longer than its width. The area of the rectangular top of the box is 77 square cm. Find the leng
finlep [7]

Answer: the length is 11 cm.

The width is 7 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangular plastic box.

Let W represent the width of the rectangular plastic box.

The area of the rectangular top of the box is 77 square cm. This means that

LW = 77- - - - - - - ;- - - -1

The plastic box has a length 4 cm longer than its width. This means that

L = W + 4

Substituting L = W + 4 into equation 1, it becomes

(W + 4)W = 77

W² + 4W = 77

W² + 4W - 77 = 0

W² + 11W - 7W - 77 = 0

W(W + 11) - 7(W + 11) = 0

W - 7 = 0 or W + 11 = 0

W = 7 or W = - 11

Since the width cannot be negative, then W = 7cm

L = 77/7 = 11 cm

How to add fractions? with unlike denominators
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The recipe calls for 19/12 or 1 7/9 cups.


Step-by-step:

In order to get this answer, we have to add all three fractions together. First, we have to find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) between the three denominators:

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12

3: 3,6,9,12

4: 4,8,12

The LCM between these three denominators is 12.

4x3=12

2x6=12

3x4=12

You now multiply the numerator by the same number you multiplied by for the denominator in order to get 12:

3/4 becomes 9/12

1/2 becomes 6/12

1/3 becomes 4/12

We now add all the fractions together:

9/12+6/12+4/12= 19/12

We got 19/12 but the answer is an improper fraction so we turn it into a mixed number:

12x1=12 (7 remaining)

This is written as 1 7/12.

Hope this helps! :)
