The area is one side times the other side
Make the other side x.
12x=42
x=42/12=3.5
The perimeter is 2x+2y where x and y are sides of the rectangle.
P= 2(3.5)+2(12)=7+24=31 inches
Hope this helps.

Kobotan [32]
We have question
\frac{W}{6}+ \frac{5}{8} =-1 \frac{3}{8}    
\frac{W}{6} + \frac{5}{8} =- \frac{11}{8}  <span> /*8      (multiply both sides by 8)</span>
\frac{W8}{6} + \frac{5}{1} =- \frac{11}{1}  /*6      (multiply both sides by 6)
8W+5*6=-11*6      /-30 both sides
8W=-66-30
8W=-96

Bess has $2.80 in quarters and dimes. The number of dimes is 7 less than the number of quarters. Find the number of quarters and
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

3 dimes and 10 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 7 dimes, then the number of dimes and quarters is the same, and the total increases to $3.50. A dime and a quarter have a value together of $0.35. Since there are equal numbers, the value $3.50 must be made up of some quantity of groups with a value of $0.35. That number of groups must be ...

... $3.50/$0.35 = 10

Thus, there are 10 quarters and 10-7 = 3 dimes.

_____

<em>Using an equation</em>

Let q represent the number of quarters. Then the amount Bess has is ...

... 0.10(q -7) +0.25q = 2.80

... 0.35q - 0.70 = 2.80

... 0.35q = 3.50 . . . . . add 0.70 . . . . . . . this should look familiar

... q = 3.50/0.35 = 10

If you earned 892.50 after depositing 1400 at 4.25% simple interest, how long was it invested ? Using the simple interest formul
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Time t = 15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest = 892.50

Principal = 1400

Rate = 4.25%

Time = unknown

But

interest I = Principal p * rate r * time t

Time t = interest I/(principal P * rate r)

Time t=( 892.50*100)/(1400*4.25)

Time t=89250/5950

Time t = 15 years
