Hi, these equations are pretty easy actually, first thing you should know when working with variables is that you always want to leave the variable alone, let's take the third excersise for example, 12x + 2 = 146. Here you just do the opposite on the other side of the equation depending if the number is positive or negative. Since x is being multiplied by 12 you first get rid of the 2, since its positive you subtract it to 146. Now the answer should be 12x = 144. Now since you're multiplying 12 to x you just divide 12 from 144, 144/12 = 12
x = 12
You can work this out by doing the sum 200×1.04^8.
This gives the answer 273.71381
So it will be worth $273.71

ANSWER: L=13; W=9
--Please read this explanation and this will be much easier for you, it took time to type..
Set up variables first. I will lead through how to get the answer.
First get variables. So, what is Perimeter? Perimeter is like so:
P = 2L + 2W = 44ft
Now instead of using P, we'll continue with
2L + 2W = 44 because this can be used to help answer the question better than P.
"Length of the patio is 5 ft less than twice the width"
So it says "length of the patio", so we put
L =
"5 ft less than twice the width"
L = 2W - 5
Now we know what L is, and we can plug this in to our first equation!
2L + 2W = 44
L = 2W - 5
Multiply by 2...
2L = 4W - 10
Plug in...
4W - 10 (2L see?) + 2W = 44
Rearrange...
4W + 2W - 10 = 44
And solve...
=6W - 10 = 44
=6W = 44 + 10
=6W = 54
=6W/6 = 54/6
=W = 9
Now we have W. Plug this into our other equation.
L = 2W - 5
L = 2*9 - 5
L = 18 - 5
L = 13
The length of the patio is 13 ft and the width of the patio is 9 ft.
