Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5

N+7 - 7 more songs added
n-2 - 2 songs deleted (subtracted)
4n - 4 times more songs than before
n/2 - the number of songs cut in half (divided by 2)
Answer:
Sabemos que:
L es el largo de la avenida.
En la primer etapa se asfalto la mitad, L/2, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:
L - L/2 = L/2.
En la segunda etapa se asfalto la quinta parte, L/5, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:
L/2 - L/5 = 5*L/10 - 2*L/10 = (3/10)*L
En la tercer etapa se asfalto la cuarta parte del total, L/4, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:
(3/10)*L - L/4 = 12*L/40 - 10L/40 = (2/40)*L
Y sabemos que este ultimo pedazo que queda por asfaltar es de 200m:
(2/40)*L = 200m
L = 200m*(40/2) = 4,000m
