Answer:

Part A : D.) 2w + 2(2w+ 1) = 29

Part B : Length of the sandbox is 10 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Perimeter = 29 ft

We need to find the equation for the perimeter and also the length of the sandbox.

Solution,

Let the width of the sandbox be 'w'.

Now as per question said;

The length of the sandbox is 1 foot longer than twice the width of the sandbox.

So we can say that;

Length = 2w+1

Now we know that the perimeter is equal to the sum of twice of length and width.

framing in equation form, we get;

Perimeter = 2(2w+1)+2w

we have given the perimeter, so on substituting the value, we get;

29=2(2w+1)+2w

Hence The equation used to find the width is  29=2(2w+1)+2w.

Now we solve for 'w'.

Applying distributive property, we get;

4w+2+2w=29\\\\6w+2=29

Subtracting both side by '2' we get

6w+2-2=29-2\\\\6w=27

Dividing both side by 6 we get;

\frac{6w}{6}=\frac{27}{6}\\\\w=4.5\ ft

Width of the sandbox = 4.5 ft

Length of the sandbox = 2w+1=2\times4.5 +1 = 9+1=10\ ft

Hence Length of the sandbox is 10 feet.

Dominic considers buying 2 points on a 25-year, fixed rate mortgage for $187,600. His interest rate will be 5.45% if he does not
algol [13]

Answer:

If Dominic buys 2 points (2% of the loan value) he will get a better rate and hence less payment.  The question is asking how long will it take him to save the initial investment of 2% of the loan value due to a smaller payment.  The monthly payment at 5.45% is  $1,146.43,  the monthly payment for 5.2% is  $1,118.66.  This is a difference of  $27.77 per month.  The 2 points will cost him  $3,752.00.  The question is asking how long will it take Dominic to re-coup his  $3,752.00 if he saves $27.77 per month.  Just divide the 2 numbers and you get  135.10 months.  If you divide that by 12 you get 11.26 years, which is roughly 11 years, 4 months.

174 packages of t-shirts    PLEASE GIVE BRAINLIEST

Step-by-step explanation:

139 x 5 = 695 t-shirts are needed

695 ÷ 4 = 173.75

Since you have to purchase whole packages of t-shirts you will need to buy 174 packages of t-shirts.  174 x 4 = 696 t-shirts
