Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. Perimeter of the building = sum of all the length of the outer borders surrounding the building = 1,718 ft

Thus:

4x - 6 + 2x + 3x + 2(3x + 4) + 3x + 2x + x + x + x + 2x + 4x - 6 + 2(3x + 4) + 4x - 6 + 3x = 1,718

Open the Parentheses

4x - 6 + 2x + 3x + 6x + 8 + 3x + 2x + x + x + x + 2x + 4x - 6 + 6x + 8 + 4x - 6 + 3x = 1,718

Combine like terms

42x - 2 = 1,718

42x = 1,718 + 2

42x = 1,720

x ≈ 41

2. Missing perimeter of Building = 2x + 2x + 4x - 6

Simplify

= 8x - 6

Plug in the value of x

= 8(41) - 6

= 322 ft

3. Area of English Building = length * width

= (4x - 6 + 2x)(3x)

Simplify

= (6x - 6)(3x)

Plug in the value of x

= (6(41) - 6)(3(41))

= (246 - 6)(123)

= (240)(123)

= 29,520 ft²

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

From our calculations the large jar is the best value for money because a penny buys more honey

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>In this problem we are expected to determine which purchase of honey is the cheapest ? large jar or small jar ?.</h2><h2 />

We will determine which has the best value for money using the quantity a pound can purchase.  

firstly for the large jar.

if £4.10 will purchase 540g of honey then,

   £1.00 will purchase xg

cross multiplying to find x will have

x=  \frac{1.00*540g}{4.10}

x= 131.7grams

Hence for the large jar a penny would buy 131.7g of honey

secondly for the small jar

if £2.81 will purchase 360g of honey then,

   £1.00 will purchase xg

cross multiplying to find x will have

x=\frac{1.00*360g}{2.81}\\x= 128.1gram

Hence for the small jar a penny would buy 128.1g of honey
