Answer:

0.9545

Step-by-step explanation:

Let an integer be x.

If x is increased by 15%, then the value of the number would be

115/100x=1.15x

If 1.15x is decreased by 17%, then the value of the number would be:

(100-17)/100×1.15x

83/100×1.15x=0.9545x

X-4=10;4x+1=57<br>i need to change the first equation into to the second equation.

cestrela7 [59]

Is this what you mean this is what i understood.

X-4=10;4x+1=57

First equation solve for x.

X-4=10

Add 4 both sides

X=10+4

X=14

Second equation substitute your x answer into second equation to make both sides equal.

4x+1=57

4(14)+1=57

56+1=57

57=57

The formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle is p= 2l 2w solve the formula for w.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

w = $\frac{p -2l}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 2l + 2w Subtract 2l from both sides of the equation

p - 2l = 2p Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{p -2l}{2}$ = w
