Answer:
- (a) 104 = 4(12+x)
- (b) x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The new side length of Ben's garden is (12+x), since x is the amount of increase above the existing 12 ft side length.
The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the four equal sides, so is ...
perimeter = 4 × side length
104 = 4(12+x)
(b) We can solve this by dividing by 4, then subtracting 12.
26 = 12 +x . . . . . divide the above equation by 4
14 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 12
The solution is x = 14.

<u><em>The correct answer is: </em></u>4.2 inches.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u><span>
<u><em>: </em></u>We use the size of the largest dimension of the reproduction to find the scale factor. The largest dimension of the original drawing was 5 inches.
The largest dimension of the reproduction is 11 inches.
<u>To find the scale factor, divide: </u>

<span><span>=2.1.
Since the scale factor is 2.1, to find the smallest dimension of the reproduction we <u>multiply the original by 2.1</u>:
2*2.1=4.2 inches.</span></span>
No because
15b + 4 = 25.6
15b = 21.6
b = 1.44
0.6+15b+4 = 25.6
4.6 + 15b = 25.6
15b = 21
b = 1.4
The answers are not the same therefore they are not equivalent.
Answer:
40w^3
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming you meant w^3 (w to the third power). In that case, you would just add 34 + 13 + 11 - 18 because they are all like terms (coefficients of w^3).
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: You would multiply 2/3 by 3/4.
(Hint: if it is ____ of ____, you would most likely multiply)
Step 2: 2×3/3×4
Step 3: 2×3=6
Step 4: 3×4=12
Step 5: 6/12
Step 6: Simplify 6/12 = 3/6 = 1/2
Hope this helps :)
