Solve the equation using substitution?
If I'm understanding this correctly:
Tiger consumes 18lb/day of food. If we want to calculate how much is consumed in 28 days, assuming that rate is consistent, the answer is 18*28 = 504lb of food.
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:


to find the area of a rectangle is LxW=A
plug in the given numbers you have
L = 7
W = x-8
A = 42
7 * x-8 = 42
7x-56= 42
solve for X
First, solve the parenthesis
Remember to follow PEMDAS, and the left-> right rule
12/3 = 4
4 x 2 = 8
8 + 3 = 11
11 - 7 = 4
Square the remaining number
4² = 4 x 4 = 16
16 is your answer
hope this helps
