Length of side of new square is 17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Let the length of the side of the old square be x. Then length of side of new square = x + 3 and Perimeter of new square = 40 + 2x

Perimeter of a square = 4 × side

⇒ 4(x + 3) = 40 + 2x

⇒ 4x + 12 = 40 + 2x

⇒ 2x = 28

⇒ x = 14 inches

  • Step 2: Find length of side of the new square

⇒ x + 3 = 17 inches

A proportional relationship between the number of pounds of potatoes (x) and the price in dollars (y) is graphed, and the ordere
Ronch [10]

Part A

We have x = 4 and y = 3 paired up together.

This says that 4 pounds of potatoes cost $3

The price per pound (aka unit price) is y/x = 3/4 = 0.75 dollars = 75 cents.

Answer: 75 cents per pound

========================================

Part B

The ordered pair (8,6) means x = 8 and y = 6 pair up together.

So in this case, 8 pounds of potatoes cost $6.

notice how y/x = 6/8 = 3/4 = 0.75 dollars = 75 cents here as well. So we get the same unit cost.
