$520 was earned by carl in last week

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/2 X - 20 )  = 240

1/2 X = 240 +20 = 260

1/2 X = 240 +20 = 260

 X = 260÷1/2 = 520

X = 260÷1/2 = 520

verification

520 ÷2 = 260 - 20 = 240

520 ÷2 = 260 - 20 = 240

Hence proved

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

formula= (kx,ky)

where k = scale factor

= A((8,-4)

= A= (8×12,-4×12)

<u>A= (96,-48)</u>

B= (2,2)

= (2×12,2×12)

<u>B= (24,24)</u>

C= (0,-6)

= (0×12,-6×12)

<u>C= (0,-72)</u>

The length of a rectangle is 5 m less than twice the width, and the area of the rectangle is 52 m^2. Find the dimensions of the
lys-0071 [83]

length is 8m

Width is 6.5m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let, width = b

So, length = 2b-5

area = 52m^{2}

We know,

area of rectangle = length X width

So, 52m^{2} = (2b-5) X b

On solving the above equation, we get

Width, b = 6.5m

length, l = 8m
