Answer:  The length of the patio is 20 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the perimeter of a patio is 64 feet. The width of the patio is 12 feet and the length of the patio is (x + 6) feet.

We are to find the length of the patio.

According to the given information, we have

2\{12+(x+6)\}=64\\\\\Rightarrow 2(x+18)=64\\\\\Rightarrow x+18=\dfrac{64}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x+18=32\\\\\Rightarrow x=32-18\\\\\Rightarrow x=14.

Therefore, the length of the patio is given by

x+6=14+6=20~\textup{feet}.

Thus, the required length of the patio is 20 feet.

Formula for Perimeter is P=2l+2w. Then you plug in the information that you already know:

P=2(x+6)+2(12)

64=2x+12+24

64=2x+36

28=2x

x=14

you plug x back into your equation for l and get l=14+6=20


The length is 20 ft.

7,676 rounded to the nearest hundred
Gala2k [10]

the nearest hundred spot is 700 for the number. when rounding for hundreds, you use the 2nd digit number. Example, if a proablem asks to round 521 to the nearest hundred it would be 500. Another rule to remember is that anything 5 and above you round up (ex: 589 would round up to 600). Anything below 5 you would round down (ex: 234 would round down to 200). goinf back to the problem, the answer should be 7,700

5. photo album: $25.50, 10% markup
sasho [114]

Answer:

$28.05

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to find how much the photo album is after the markup, you first have to find 10% of the original price. 10% of $25.50 is $2.55, so you add $2.55 and $25.50 to find the price after the markup.

Hope this helps!
