All rectangles are parallelograms. Hope this helps.
We can use the distributive property for this:
4 (p+2) = 28
4p + 8 = 28.
4p = 28 - 8.
4p = 24.
Divide by 4 on both sides:
p = 6
First, we calculated the discounted price which would have been paid by Keith. That is the product of 85% and $36,000.
($36,000) x (85%) = $30,600
Then, after negotiating to pay 9% off the sale price, he will only need to pay 91% of the sale price. The new price would be,
($30600) x (0.91) = $27846
Thus, Keith will only need to pay $27,846.
Answer: there is only one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms by performing the opposite operation of subtracting 4x on both sides of the equation
The 4x's will cross out on the right
4x - 4x = 0x = 0
On the left:
2x - 4x = -2x
Now the equation looks like:
-2x + 3 = 2
Continue to combine like terms by subtracting 3 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
3 - 3 = 0
On the right:
2 - 3 = -1
Equation:
-2x = -1
Isolate x by performing the opposite operation of dividing -2 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
-2x ÷ -2 = 1
On the right:
-1 ÷ -2 = 1/2
x= 1/2

Answer:
3 3/4 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
The yield from 3/4 cup of sugar is 2 dozen cookies. Multiply that by 5 and you get: the yield from 15/4 cups of sugar is 10 dozen cookies.
As a mixed number 15/4 = 3 3/4.
Ana will need 3 3/4 cups of sugar for 10 dozen cookies.
