Answer:
x=8/3 OR 2.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.3+4.6x=0.3+4x
4.6x-4x=0.3+1.3
0.6x=1.6
x=1.6/0.6=8/3
x=8/3 OR 2.7

Answer:
11 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say that w = width of the rectangle, to start. If the length of the rectangle is 3 meters greater than 2 times the width, the length of the rectangle is equal to 3 + 2w.
The perimeter of the rectangle is 2 * length of rectangle + 2 * width of the rectangle. With the perimeter being equal to 30 and width being w and length being 2w+3:
The perimeter of the rectangle is 2(w) + 2(2w+3) = 30.
We first need to find out w first, which will give us the width of the rectangle. Taking it step by step, we get:
2w + 4w + 6 = 30
6w + 6= 30
6w = 24 which is done by subtracting both sides by 6 to put the variables on one side and the values on the other side
w = 4 which is done by dividing 6 on both sides
Ultimately, this gets width to be 4 meters. Now that we found the width, we need to plug w = 4 into the equation we set up for length which is 2w+3.
That being said, the ANSWER is:
length of rectangle = 2(4)+3 = 11 meters

Subtract all the operating expenses from the amount he spent total and get what's left over is $491. That's what he spent on gas. Divide the number of miles he drove by the amount he spent on the gas to find out what the average cost of the gas was per mile. 491/7270 = .06753. But that is expressed in dollars and we need it in cents. Multiply that decimal by 100 to get 6.75 cents, choice A from above.
