Answer: NP = 9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal.
If the length of the longer side is MN, it means that the length of the two opposite longer sides is 2MN.
If the length of the shorter side is NP, it means that the length of the two opposite shorter sides is 2NP.
The perimeter is 2MN + 2NP
If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, it means that
2MN + 2NP = 68- - - - - - - - - - - -1
In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. It means that
MN = 2NP + 7- - - - - - - - - - -2
Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes
2(2NP + 7) + 2NP = 68
4NP + 14 + 2NP = 68
4NP + 2NP = 68 - 14
6NP = 54
NP = 54/6
NP = 9 inches
Answer:
I will assume that the term "x+2/2" is meant to be "(x + 2)/2)." Otherwise the equation would read (x/3) = x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x/3) = (x + 2)/2
x = 3*(x+2)/2 [Multiply both sides by 3]
x = (3x + 6)/2
x = (3/2)x + 6/2
x - (3/2)x = 3
-0.5x = 3
x = -6
====================
Check:
Does (x/3) = (x + 2)/2 for x = -6?
(-6/3) = (-6 + 2)/2
-2 = -4/2
-2 = -2 YES
Answer:
Yes it is
Step-by-step explanation:
Each x value is represented by exactly one y value.
Answer:
Option B is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
List Price=$720
The percentage of discount=13%
In order to find the amount of discount, 13% of the amount has to be calculated. To calculate 13% , the amount is multiplied by 13/100.
Amount of discount=13% of list price
=720*13/100
=720*0.13
=$93.60
The amount of discount is $93.6..
Answer: negative 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since at the top of the mountain its already 0 and the degrees drop 3 each hour then multiply -3 by 2 hours and there you go.
