Selling point???

You mean selling price.

Let x = selling price

100 + 121 = 221

Here is your equation:

221/100 = x/87.62

100x = (221)(87.62)

Can you finish?

Solve for x.

If the perimeter of square region S and the perimeter of rectangular region R are equal and the sides of R are in the ratio 2:3

Answer: The correct option is (B) 24 : 25.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the perimeter of square region S and the perimeter of rectangular region R are equal and the sides of R are in the ratio 2 : 3.

We are to find the ratio of the area of R to the area of S.

Let 2x, 3x be the sides of rectangle R and y be the side of square S.

Then, according to the given information, we have

$\textup{Perimeter of rectangle R}=\textup{Perimeter of square S}\\\\\Rightarrow2(2x+3x)=2(y+y)\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=2y\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{y}=\dfrac{2}{5}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

Therefore, the ratio of the area of R to the area of S is

$\dfrac{2x\times3x}{y\times y}\\\\\\=\dfrac{5x^2}{y^2}\\\\\\=6\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^2\\\\\\=6\times\left(\dfrac{2}{5}\right)^2~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{Using equation (i)}]\\\\\\=\dfrac{24}{25}\\\\=24:25.$
