X=side length of a campsite
12x(5+x)=1248  because each campsite has a length of x and there are 12                           and from the top of the camp to the water is the 5 yds + a                             side length and LW=1248
60x+12x^2=1248
12x^2+60x-1248=0
x^2+5-14=0
(x+7)(x-2)=0
x+7=0 or x-2=0
x=-7 or x=2
x=2 because width can't be negative
the width of one campsite is 2 yds

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: 1. $45*1.07 | $45(1.07) 2. (0.85)*32 represent the final price of the cake in dollars because (0.85) is the 15% off in decimals.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 if you multiply 45 by 1.07 it will be 48.15 and that's the final cost of the book, same with $45(1.07) is just another way to represent the multiplication.

2 As I said the 0.85 represent the 15% off, and when you multiply it will be less.
