The length of the yard is 25ft.
In order to find this we first need to set up variables for the length and the width. Since we don't know anything about the width, we'll set it as x. Then, we know the length is equal to ten more than three times the width. Since the width is x, we can write the length as 3x + 10. Now we can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle to solve for x.
2l + 2w = P
2(3x + 10) + 2(x) = 60
6x + 20 + 2x = 60
8x + 20 = 60
8x = 40
x = 5
Now that we have a value for x, we can plug into the length equation and find the length.
3x + 10
3(5) + 10
15 + 10
25
First do 12-5, which equals 7. Next, subtract 1/10 from 2/5. 2/5 is the same as 4/10 if you multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2. 4/10-1/10=3/10. Now add 7 and 3/10. You will get 7 3/10 as the answer, which is letter C.)
Answer:
a. 2.5
b. 2.333
c. 2.85
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 1. subtract -x on both sides 2. to get 3x-1/2=7
3. Add 1/2 on both sides 4. to get 3x=7.5
5. divide 3 on both sides 6. To get... x=2.5
B)1. Same process. 2. x+2=13/3
3. x=13/3-2 4. x= 2.33(repeating)
C) 1. same process. 2. 2x-x/3=3+7/4
3. 2x-x/3=4.75 4. Isolate -x/3
5.-x/3=4.75-2x 6. multiply both sides by 3
7. -x=14.25-6x 8. 5x=14.25
9. x= 2.85
* remember to distribute the 3 to each variable.
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
So to find the answer, we would use the equation 32+4x=56 where as x represents the amount of strawberries Sameer ate. Now to solve for x
56-32=4x
24=4x
now divide 4 from bboth sides of the equation getting:
x=6
so Sameer ate 6 strawberries
