Answer:

The width is 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

2l + 2w = 38

l = w + 3

2(w + 3) + 2w = 38

2w + 6 + 2w = 38

4w + 6 = 38

4w = 32

w = 8

l = 11

11 + 11 + 8 + 8 = 38

Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given: 2L+2W=38 or simplified version: L+W=19

L=3+W

So plug 2nd equation into first, like so, (3+W)+W=19

3+W+W=19

3+2W=19

2W=16

W=8

If the divisor is 4 and the quotient is 8, what is the dividend ?

kolbaska11 [484]

<h3>If the divisor is 4 and the quotient is 8, Then, dividend is 32</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Divisor = 4

Quotient = 8

To find: dividend

We know that,

$Dividend \div divisor = quotient$

Therefore,

$Dividend \div 4 = 8\\\\Dividend \times \frac{1}{4} = 8\\\\Dividend = 8 \times 4\\\\Dividend = 32$

Thus, dividend is 32

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The answer would be 24 balloons in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jorge bought 6 large balloons, which was 25% of ALL the balloons he bought.

Meaning that since 6 is 25% of the number 24, he bought 24 balloons in total.

PROOF:

25% * 24 = 6

24 / 6 = 4

6 * 4 = 24

Let a, b, c, and d be real numbers with a, c 6= 0. Prove that the lines y = ax+b and y = cx + d have the same x-intercept if and

Monica [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have got the lines :

$y=ax+b\\y=cx+d$

Both lines intercept the x-axis in the point :

$I = (i_{1} ,i_{2})$

In all point from x-axis the y-component is equal to 0.

$I=(i_{1},o)$

We replace the I point in the lines equations:

$0=a(i_{1})+b \\0=c(i_{1})+d$

From the first equation :

$0=a(i_{1})+b \\-b=a(i_{1})\\i_{1}=\frac{-b}{a}$

From the second equation :

$0=c(i_{1})+d\\ -d=c(i_{1})\\i_{1}=\frac{-d}{c}$

Then $i_{1}=i_{1}$

Finally :

$\frac{-b}{a}=\frac{-d}{c} \\\frac{b}{a}=\frac{d}{c} \\ad=bc$

y = ax + b and y = cx + d have the same x-intercept ⇔ad=bc

4. Sandra has 35% of the money she needs. She has $105. How much more money does she need? Write the equation and solve.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

36.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First is turn the percent into a decimal which would be 0.35.

Then multiply 0.35 with 105

Finally this would equal to 36.75

Note: Hope I got it right, if I didn't I am very sorry this is all I can really do. If I did get it wrong please comment and I'll try again.
