A+b+c= 180
<span>a = ?
</span><span>b = 2a - 10 (twice a minus 10)
</span><span>c = b + 25 (25 more than b)
</span><span>Substitute for b
c = (2a-10) + 25
</span><span>Now substitute back into a+b+c=180
a + (2a-10) + (2a-10+25) = 180
</span><span>Eliminate the parentheses
a + 2a - 10 + 2a - 10 + 25 = 180
</span><span>Combine like terms
5a + 5 = 180
</span><span>Subtract 5 from both sides
5a = 175
</span><span>Divide both sides by 5
a = 35
</span><span>Substitute into the equation for b.
b = 2a -10 = 2*35 - 10 = 70 - 10 = 60
</span><span>Add 25 to b to get c.
c = 60 + 25 = 85</span><span>Check by adding them up.
35 + 60 + 85 = 180
Done.</span>

area * height = volume of box  

side = x

height =2  

2x^2=162  

x^2=81

x=9 inches  the side of the box

The value of a dirt bike decreases by 15% each year. If you purchased this dirt bike today for $500, to the nearest dollar how m
ANTONII [103]

Right now the dirt bike is worth $500. Next year it will be worth 15% less, or 85% of the current value (because currently it's at 100%, so you would subtract the 15%). To find 85% of the dirt bike's value, you would take $500 and multiply by 85% (or 0.85). This would give you $425 after 1 year. You'd take $425 and multiply that by 85% for the next year, and continue until you reached 5 years of the value decreasing. Does this help?
