Hey, there, Brooklyn! For the first problem, set up a proportion. Think of the line that separates the numerator and denominator is the word 'per'. If it's 0.75 yd per costume, then your fraction is \frac{0.75(yards)}{1(costume)}. If she buys 6 yards, simply multiply 6 * 0.75, which is 4.5. However, making 4.5 costumes doesn't sound too possible, does it? It's better to just say she can make 4 costumes.

Now let's look at the second problem. If just one side has a length of (4x - 2y), then that means there must be another side with the same length, as it is a rectangle we're talking about here. That means we should multiply the known length by two and subtract it from the perimeter like this:

12x + 8y - 2(4x - 2y)

Remember the PEMDAS method. Distribute the 2;

12x + 8y - 8x + 4y

Now combine like terms: 12x - 8x + 8y + 4y

--> 6x + 12y

Now we have an answer, but it's not the right one. You see, this is the length of both of the unknown lengths. To get the right answer, divide this by 2. The other side is 3x + 6y units long. Hope this helped.

The total curb weight of a truck, a car A, and a car B is 11,350lb. The weight of car A is 5 lb less than the weight of two B ca
n200080 [17]
Let mass of truck be t
mass of car A be a
and carB be b

so , a=2b-5
t=a+2135

putting a into t...
t=2b-5+2135

so, a+b+t=11350 ( putting all values)
2b-5+b+2b-5+2135=11350

so b=1845
a=3685
t=5820

so weight of Car A is 3685 lb
weight of Car B is 1845 lb
and truck is 5820 lb ......answers !!
