Answer:
The expression 7x represents the height of the container.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question:
We are being informed that; if the length of the container is half of a foot longer than its width.
Let the width be x;
Then the length of the container can now be ; x+1/2
We all known that the volume of a rectangular prism is : V= l×w×h
here;
l = length
w = width
h = height
If we rewrite the given expression :
;
Then we factor we make a similar coefficient of the above equation, the remaining entities left in the parenthesis should be a linear term with a leading coefficient of 1 to match the expression for the length of the container.
i.e

Hence, if the length of the container is half a foot longer than its width, x, then the expression 7x represents the height of the container.
To do this you can do (pay) x (hours) to work out how much Johnny makes for example:
8.25 x 29.5 = 243.375$ so the answer is 243.375$
Thats a rectangle .........
Hoi!
The basic metric unit of capacity is a liter. :)
We need to find the percent, let's start but making the equation.
The price is 2.69
The tax cost is 0.13
So what percent of 2.69 is = 0.13.
Equation: X/100 x 2.69 = 0.13
Multiply each side by 100 so we can get x alone with the price: 2.69x = 13
Now to get x alone, we must divide both sides by 2.69: x = 4.8
Finally, we just round 4.8 to the nearest whole number, which is 5 (5 or above give it a shove, 4 or below let it go, we have 8 so we give it a shove). This means that the answer will be 5%.
I hope this helps! :)
