We can set up the width a X and, from the description the length would be 3X-1. The perimeter of a rectangle is determined by 2XL + 2Xw. Plugging into the equation 2(3X-1) + 2(X) = 118. Next distribute to get 6X-2 + 2X = 118. Combine like terms to get 8X = 120. Divide by 8 to get X = 15. The width is 15. The length is 3(15)-1 or 44. 88 +30 = 118
Buying price: $75,300
Selling price: $80,250
You want to find out how much more the selling price was when compared to the buying price.
To find the difference in prices, simply subtract the selling price with the buying price.
$80,250 (buying price) - $75,300 (selling price) = $4,950 (price difference)
The selling price is greater than the buying price of the house by $4,950
