Answer:

Width = 10.2 inches

Length = 37.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at it this way:

length = l

width = w

2l + 2w = 96

l = 4w - 3

substitute.

2(4w - 3) + 2w = 96

Solve for w.

8w - 6 + 2w = 96

10w = 102

w = 10.2

10.2 * 4 = 40.8

40.8 - 3 = 37.8

l = 37.8

Beth normally cycles a total distance of 56 miles per week.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

She will cycle 85.169 miles in the third week.

(round if needed)

Step-by-step explanation:

56÷100=0.56 (this is 1%)

0.56 x 15 + 56 = 64.4 (you find 15% then add 56 (the original amount) because it's an increase of 15%)

repeat for the other 3 weeks

64.4÷100=0.644

0.644 x 15 + 64.4 = 74.06

74.06÷100=0.7406

0.7406 x 15 + 74.06 = 85.169

A scientist removed a sample of 39.1 grams of a chemical from a container. The sample was 5 3/4 grams less than 3/10 of the tota
Oksanka [162]

The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:

x: the total mass of the chemical in the container

y: a sample of a chemical from a container

We have the following equation:

y = (3/10) x - 5 3/4

Then, for y = 39.1 we have:

39.1 = (3/10) x - 5 3/4

Clearing x:

(3/10) x = 39.1 + 5 3/4

(3/10) x = 44.85

x = (10/3) * (44.85)

x = 149.5 grams

Answer:

the total mass in grams of the chemical in the container before the scientist removed the sample of 39.1 grams was:

x = 149.5 grams.
