Rectangle's perimeter formula is p=2(length+width)
2(9x+8x)=68
17x=34
x=2
length is 9(2)=18 feet
width is 8(2)=16feet

Answer:

length is 9(2)=18 feet

width is 8(2)=16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

rectangular perimeter formula is length plus width

2 ( 9x +  x ) = 68

17x = 34

x = 2

Casper bought some pencils at .50 each. He had $3 left after the purchase. If he wanted to buy the same number of note pads at .
Nesterboy [21]

<u>Answer:   </u>

Required linear equation to get number of pencils purchased by Casper is 3x – 45 = 0 where x represents number of pencils and number of pencils Casper purchased = 15.

<u>Solution: </u>

Let’s assume number of pencils purchased by Casper = x

As given price of each pencil is 0.50 , so price of x pencils = 0.50x = 0.5x

Also given that she was left with $3 after buying x pencils.

So initial amount which was with casper = price of x pencils + amount he was left with.

=> Initial amount with Casper = 0.5x + 3    ------(1)

Now consider second scenario  

If Casper wanted to buy same number of notepad at price of 0.80 each , then

Total amount need for x notepad = 0.80x = 0.8x

But its also given that he will be short of $1.5.

So initial amount with Casper = 0.80x – 1.5 ------(2)

On equating initial amount with casper using equation (1) and equation(2) we get

0.5x + 3 = 0.8x – 1.5

=> 0.8x – 0.5x = 3 + 1.5

=> 0.3x = 4.5

=> 0.3x – 4.5 = 0  

=> 3x – 45 = 0

So linear equation for x that is number of pencils he purchased is 3x – 45 = 0 where variable x represents number of pencils.

On solving the linear equation 3x – 45 = 0 for x we get

3x = 45

x = 15

Hence required linear equation to get number of pencils purchased by Casper is 3x – 45 = 0 where x represents number of pencils and number of pencils Casper purchased = 15.

Triangle ABC has vertices A(–2, 3), B(0, 3), and C(–1, –1). Find the coordinates of the image after a reflection over the x-axis
azamat
Since it's a reflection over the x axis, the x coordinates will stay the same while the y coordinates will be opposite of what they are. 

After reflected: A'(-2,-3), B'(0,-3), C'(-1,1)

261,256,251 find the 50th term
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

a_{50}=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

An airthmetic sequence,

261,256,251

We need to find the 50th term.

We have,

first term, a = 261

common difference = 256-261 = -5

The nth term of the AP is given by :

a_n=a+(n-1)d\\\\a_{50}=a+49d\\\\a_{50}=261+49(-5)\\\\a_{50}=16

So, the 50th term of the sequence is 16.
