After washing 92 cars, both teams will have same amount.

The total will be $377.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount raised in past by Volleyball team = $9

Revenue generated per car = $4

Let,

c be the number of cars.

T be be funds raised

T = 4c + 9      Eqn 1

Amount raised by Wrestling team = $101

Revenue generated per car = $3

T = 3c+101      Eqn 2

For same amount;

Eqn 1 = Eqn 2

4c+9=3c+101\\4c-3c=101-9\\c=92

After washing 92 cars, both teams will have same amount.

Putting c=92 in Eqn 1 and 2

T=4(92)+9\\T=368+9\\T=377

T=3(92)+101\\T=276+101\\T=377

The total will be $377.

Use the distributive property to find the value of x.
noname [10]

Answer:

The value of x = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-1.2(3 – x) = -1.8

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

Distributive property:

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

For example A(B + C) = A×B + A×C

Here we have,

-1.2(3 – x) = -1.8

Applying Distributive property we get ,

-1.2×3 -1.2×-x = -1.8

∴ -3.6 +1.2x = -1.8

∴ 1.2x =3.6-1.8\\\\1.2x=1.8\\\\x=\frac{1.8}{1.2} \\\textrm{multiply numerator and denominator by 10}\\x=\frac{1.8\times 10}{1.2\times 10}\\ \\x=\frac{18}{12} \\\\\\x= 1.5

∴ x = 1.5

the length of a rectangle is 5 inches longer than twice the width and the area is 12 inches squared. Let l represent the length
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Length = 8 inch , Width = \frac{3}{2} , This equation models the situation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as ;

The Area of Rectangle is 12 inches²

The Length of Rectangle is 5 inches longer than twice the width

Let The Length = L inches

      The Width   = W inches

According to question ,

L = 5 + (2 × w )

∵ The Area of Rectangle = Length × width

Or, 12  inches²  = [ 5 + (2 × w ) ] ×  w

Or,  12  inches² = 5 w +2 w²

Or,  2 w² + 5 w  - 12 = 0

Or,   2 w² + 8 w  -3 w - 12 = 0

Or,  2 w (w +4) - 3 (w + 4) = 0

I.e (w + 4) ( 2 w - 3) = 0

So ,  w = -4 , and w = \frac{3}{2}

∴  Length = 5 + (2 × w ) =

   Length = 5 + (2 ×\frac{3}{2}  )  

so ,  L = 5 + 3 = 8

Hence Length = 8 inch , Width = \frac{3}{2}   This equation models the situation Answer
