There are two equation:

1) From Kim

2) From Daniel


Let:

x be the cost of rolls of plain wrapping paper

y be the cost of rolls of shiny wrapping paper


Kim:

7x + 8y = 140

Daniel:

14x + 7y = 154


<u>Using elimination method:</u>

(7x + 8y = 140) * -2  (Multiplying the equation by -2)

-14x - 16y = -280


-14x  -16y = -280

14x + 7y = 154

------------------------------

0x - 9y = -126

9y = 126 (Negative sign cancels from both sides)

y = 126 /9

y = 14


The cost of each shiny wrapping paper is $14.


Now solve x, you pick any two equation to solve for x.

7x + 8y = 140

7x + 8(14) = 140 (You know from above y =14)

7x + 112 = 140

7x = 28

x = 28/7

x = 4


The cost of each plain wrapping paper is $4.


Solution: (4,14)

You want to make a rectangular banner that is 18ft. Long with a trim around the entire border of the banner . You have no more t
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of rectangular banner = 18 ft

Total trim of banner available = 48 ft

To find:

Possible widths of the banner = ?

Solution:

Maximum trim available of the banner around the entire border of the banner = 48 ft

i.e. we are given the total perimeter of the rectangular banner.

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is given as:

Perimeter = 2 \times (Length + Width)

Putting the values of perimeter and length to find the value of width.

48 = 2 \times (18 + Width)\\\Rightarrow 48 =36+2 \times Width\\\Rightarrow 2 \times Width = 48-36\\\Rightarrow 2 \times Width = 12\\\Rightarrow \bold{Width = 6\ ft}

So, width possible is <em>6ft.</em>
