Branden has $35 now.
30 + 5 = 35
Since you technically didn't ask for anything to be solved for, this problem is now solved. Since these types of problems are normally solving for legnth if width is given and vice versa, I will solve for legnth.
perimiter=legnth+legnth+width+width or
p=l+l+w+w
p=2l+2w
subsitute w=6.5 and p=34
34=2l+2(6.5)
34=2l+13
subtract 13 from both sides
21=2l
divide by 2
10.5=l
legnth=10.5 units
When we look at the picture, we realize that you copied the problem wrong.
The perimeter is 34 meters, not 3 meters.
The rectangle is <u>15 meters long and 2 meters wide</u>.
The area is (15 x 2) = 30 square meters.
The perimeter is (15 + 2 + 15 + 2) = 43 meters.
9x = 10
Explanation
10=18x - 10
-18x = -10 -10
-18x = 20
9x=10
Here's the equation:
0.125(500) + 500
But because it is 30 years:
30(0.125(500)) + 500
3.75(500) + 500
We can make it simpler:
4.75(500)
2375
You will have $2375
