<h3><u>The length is equal to 13.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 8.</u></h3>
l = 2w - 3
2l + 2w = 42
Because we have a value for l, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for w.
2(2w - 3) + 2w = 42
Distributive property.
4w - 6 + 2w = 42
Combine like terms.
6w - 6 = 42
Add 6 to both sides.
6w = 48
Divide both sides by 6.
w = 8
Now that we have a value for w, we can solve for the exact value of l.
l = 2(8) - 3
l = 16 - 3
l = 13
<h3>The value of A will be -3x^2 </h3>
By observing the table it can be concluded that the value of A must be equal to 3x × (-x)
So, the value will be -3x^2
<span>A + c + 2b = a + 2b + c
Commutative property
hope that helps</span>
I did (450*3/4=337.5) to get how much each person would eat, then I did (337.5*14=4725g) to see how big the turkey should be. I then converted grams to kilos (4725*0.001=4.725 kg), and I got how big the turkey would be. It turns out the appropriate size of the turkey would be medium, so then what I did was that I looked for the medium price of the turkey per kg, and found that it was £5.99 per kg. I did (4.725*5.99) and I got about £28.30.
It would cost £28.30 for 14 people.
