Answer:

$9,979,032,100 or $9.979 billion

Step-by-step explanation:

The approximate weight of a $100 bill is 1 gram.

All of the calculations bellow assume that the volume of the bills would not be an issue and only concerns weight.

1 pound is equivalent to approximately 453.59237 grams.

The weight in grams that the Big Falcon Rocket can carry is:

W= 220,000*453.59237=99,790,321.4\ g

Since each bill weighs 1 gram, the number of bills it could carry, rounded to nearest whole bill is 99,790,321. The total amount it could carry is:

A=99,790,321*\$100=\$9,979,032,100

The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice its width. The perimeter is 96 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The width  of the rectangle is 14'8",  and the length is 33'4"

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given two pieces of information:

The length is eight more than twice the width:

l = 2w + 4

The perimeter is 96 feet:

p = 96

We also need to apply one more piece of information that is not provided here, and that is the relationship between the perimeter of a rectangle, and it's length and width:

p = 2l + 2w

We can solve for w by plugging the other two values into the last:

p = 2w + 2l\\96 = 2w + 2(2w + 4)\\96 = 2w + 4w + 8\\88 = 6w\\3w = 44\\w = \frac{44}{3}\\w = 14\frac{2}{3}

Now we can find the length by plugging w into the first equation:

l = 2w + 4\\l = 2(14\frac{2}{3}) + 4\\l = 29\frac{1}{3} + 4\\l = 33\frac{1}{3}

One third of  a foot is four inches, so the width is 14'8" and the length is 33'4"

To make sure our answer is correct, we should plug those numbers back into the area equation and see if we're right:

p = 2l + 2w\\p = 2(33\frac{1}{3}) + 2(14\frac{2}{3})\\p = 66\frac{2}{3} + 29\frac{1}{3}\\p = 96

So we know our answer's correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with 1. we know that 2-x is the same as -2+x and since addition can be written as -2+x or x+(-2) and equal the same thing, we know that x-2 is the one that is not equivalent.
