Answer:

Length is 14 in

Width is 8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Length = l
  • Width = w
  • Perimeter = P = 44 in
<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>Equations as per given:</u>

  • l - w = 6
  • P= 2(l+w) = 44 ⇒ l +w = 22

<u>Adding up the two equations:</u>

  • l - w  + l +w = 6 + 22
  • 2l = 28
  • l = 28/2
  • l = 14 in

<u>Then finding the value of w:</u>

  • w = l -6
  • w = 14 - 6
  • w = 8 in

<u>Answer:</u> The length of the rectangle is 14 inches and width is 8 inches

Max is paid a salary of $225 a week plus %2.5 commission on his total sales. What was max's total sales for the week if he made
torisob [31]
So we know he made 4,650 of sales and we need 2.5% of that

First to find 2.5% of 4650 we could do 

x/4650 = 2.5/100 
 Cross multiply to get

100x = 11625
x = 116.25

So his salary for this week would be 225 + 116.25 = 341.25
