The cost for one part of pants would be $43 and the reason for that is because if four pants cost $172 all you have to do is divide the cost by the amount of pants (172/4) it would equal 43. Which it’s going to be $43 for one pair of pants

John made a rectangle pen for his dog using 28 feet of fencing. If the width of the pen is 2 feet more than one-half the length,
kati45 [8]
Okay, so you know that the perimeter of the pen is 28 feet. Now we need the separate side lengths.

P = 28 ft.
Length = x
Width = (1/2)x + 2

So now we can plug in the little equations of length and width into a perimeter formula:
 2(x) + 2((1/2)x + 2) = 28
Distribute the 2's and solve as needed.
2x + x + 4 = 28
3x + 4 = 28
3x = 24
x = 8

To find the width, just plug in 8 for x in our little equation:
(1/2)(8) + 2
= 6

So, the length is 8 feet and the width is 6 feet.

Two of your friends, Matt and Karen, both run to you to settle a dispute. They were working on a math problem, and got different
Anna11 [10]
So in matt's equation, he made a mistake in the a transision from line 2 to line 3 
in line 2:  -4(-2)2
in line 3: -4(4) 
the mistake is that -2 times 2 is not equal +4 it is equal to -4
also from lines 5 to 6 he made a mistake in order of opperations (mulit division then addition and subtract)
line 5: -10+30/5
line 6: 20/5

so he first subtracted 10 then divided, he should have divided then subtracted
so the equation should have equaled 

Karen used the correct (-) times (+) property and the order of operations
so Karen is correct and Matt is wrong.
