Here's the equation for one year:
0.03(8000) + 8000
For four years:
4(0.03(8000)) + 8000
0.12(8000) + 8000
To make it simpler/smaller:
1.12(8000) = 8960
You can make 960 more dollars, and you now have $8960
For this case we have the following equation:

We apply distributive property on the left side of the equation:

We simplify the left side of the equation:

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

On the right side we must take into account that:

So:

We add x to both sides of the equation:

We subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:

We multiply by 3 on both sides of the equation:

We divide by 8 on both sides of the equation:

Thus, the solution of the equation is:

Answer:

The answer is a h(1.25)=20
In order to find the scale they are using first you must divide 12 by 3.75.
But since we get to estimate, the 3.75 will be made into a 4 because it's the whole number closest to 3.75.
12/4=3
Take your 3 inch scale and multiply it by 3 (we are using 3 instead of 2.8 because it's a whole number) to get the real life fence size.
3x3=9
The fence is about 9 feet.
