Length of the rectangular patio = 12 1/2 feet
= 25/2 feet
Area of the rectangular patio = 103 1/8 square feet
= 825/8 square feet
Let us assume the width of the rectangular patio = x feet
Then
Area of the rectangular patio = Length * Width
825/8 = (25/2) * x
25x/2 = 825/8
25x = (825 * 2)/8 feet
25x = 825/4 feet
x = 825/(4 * 25) feet
= 33/4 feet
= 8 1/4 feet
So the width of the rectangular patio is 8 1/4 feet. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
Answer:
8x +6y -28
Step-by-step explanation:
The outside factor applies to each inside term, so the equivalent expression is ...
-8(-x -3/4y +7/2) = 8x +6y -28
Applying the distributive property once again, we can also write the equivalent expression ...
= 2(4x +3y -14)
__
There are an infinite number of other equivalent expressions. The problem statement is non-specific as to the acceptable form.
Great Question!
The last year part is extra information. 1200÷12 (months in a year)= 100

The third option makes the most sense because 2 times what ted would be 2x plus 8 more. 2x+8
