The perimeter of any shape is the distance all the way around it.

For a triangle, it's the sum of the three side lengths.

I would normally copy them into my answer and then add them up.
But you've set them up in such a beautiful table in the question,
you can just look at that list and add them up.

Add up all the x's : x + x + x = 3x

Add up all the plain numbers: -3 + 2 + 4 = 3

There's your perimeter . . . . . 3x + 3 .

Answer:

7. $x=3$

8. l=11cm and w=7 cm

9. $x-5\ge12$

10. $\frac{x}{3}\le15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 7.

The given expression is:

$12-3(2x+1)=7x-3(7+x)$

Expand the parenthesis using the distributive property:

$12-6x-3=7x-21-3x$

Group similar terms:

$-6x-7x+3x=-21+3-12$

Simplify

$-10x=-30$

Divide both sides by -10

$x=3$

Question 8:

Let the width of the rectangle be; $w$

The length of the rectangle is $l=w+4$

The perimeter is given as: $P=2(l+w)$

Given that the perimeter P=36, then:

$36=2[(w+4)+w)]$

$\implies 36=2(2w+4)$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\implies 18=2w+4$

Subtract 4 from both sides:

$\implies 18-4=2w$

$\implies 14=2w$

$\implies w=7$

The dimensions of the rectangle is: w=7 cm and l=7+4=11cm

Question 9

Let the number be x.

"5 fewer than the number" is written as $x-5$

"5 fewer than a number is at least 12" becomes

$x-5\ge12$

Question 10:

Let the number be x.

The quotient of a number and 3 is written as:

$\frac{x}{3}$

The quotient of a number and 3 is no more than 15 is written as;

$\frac{x}{3}\le15$

Clare went to a concession stand that sells pretzels for $3.25, drinks for $1.85, and bags of popcorn for $0.99 each. She bought

djyliett [7]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of each pretzel = $3.25

Price of each drink = $1.85

Price of each bag of popcorn = $0.99

Maximum money to be spent = $10

Price of two pretzels = $3.25 $\times$ 2 = $6.5

Price of two drink = $1.85 $\times$ 2 = $3.70

Price of two bags of popcorn = $0.99 $\times$ 2 = $1.98

Total money spent for buying two items of each type = $6.5 + $3.70 + $1.98 = $12.18

The money spent when 2 pretzels, 2 drinks and 2 bags of popcorn are bought is $12.18.

But maximum money available is $10.

Therefore, Clare would not be able to buy 2 pretzels, 2 drinks and 2 bags of popcorn with the amount of money available.
