8/24 = x / 48
cross multiply
(24)(x) = (8)(48)
24x = 384
x = 384/24
x = 16 <===
So whats the question my guy??
Answer:
$0.80
Step-by-step explanation:
If the 100 pounds was bought separately (of course in real life you will probably not)
= 100 pounds x $0.0825/pound
= $8.25
As you can see it will cost more than if you buy a 100 pound sack.
Cost Difference = $8.25 - $7.45 = $0.80
That means you will save $0.80 from it.
Perimeter is 24.
Length is 4 greater than the width.
Let's use 'x' for width
we can write this as x+4 + x+4 + x + x
x+4 being the width+4 and x being the width
There are 4 sides to a rectangle so you are adding 4 values
Two length and two widths
so we can then combine the two lengths to make 2x+8
and then combine the two widths to make 2x
Then put it together. 2x+2x+8= 4x+8
4x+8=24
Subtract 8 from both sides
4x=16
divide both sides by 4
x=4
The width is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:The quotient of a number and -7, decreased by 2, is 10. How do you find the number?
✓ $$-84$$ Explanation: Let the number be $$x$$. Then we have, $$x/-7$$ (The quotient of a number and -7) $$x/-7-2$$ (decreased by 2) $$x/-7 …
