The answer is -8/1 two negatives equals negative which would be -11 then subtract positive 3 equals-8
2.5 * 3.5 = 8.75 or 8 3/4 inches long
Answer:
240
12.5p + 65
14
p
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll explain the equation in different parts
12.5p - Since the number of times he visits is unknown, it has to be a variable. With each visit, however, he earns 12.5 points.
65 - This is a set value that remains constant
240
- Since he needs AT LEAST 240 points, he needs 240 points or more to get his free ticket
As for solving the equation just use properties of equality
240
12.5p + 65
175
12.5p
14
p
Ok let us assume x= the width of the table top
the length is 4 times the width meaning we are multiplying 4 and the width
which is x
length = 4x
your first equation would be the following:
4x+4x+x+x= whatever the perimeter is
if you drew a rectangle it would help you understand the above.
this represents the perimeter of the tabletop because we know the width is x. if you drew the rectangle there wouldn't be 1 width. opposite to the width is another line. same with the length. the length is 4x again there are 2 because in a rectangle there are 2 sets of parallel lines. that is why your equation would be 4x+4x+x+x= whatever the perimeter is- you could simplify this equation and write:
10x= whatever the perimeter is
x basically means 1x but in math we generally don't write that because we tend to write most things in simplest for.
hope this helps :)
Answer:
D. 
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle = 
Length of rectangle = (x - 8)
Width = (x + 11)
Area of rectangle = 
Expand the expression
(distributive property of multiplication)

Combine like terms

Expression for the area of the rectangle =
