Answer:
The answer is x=16 so whatever the equations should look like it should be this:
Step-by-step explanation: 5(x-12)=20 5x-60=20 add 60 to 20 and get 5x=80 x=16
Answer: The required width of the park is 3 miles.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that a 5 mile jogging path diagonal divides a rectangular park in half and the park is 4 miles long.
We are to find the width of the park.
As shown in the attached figure below, the diagonal BD divides the rectangle ABCD into two equal parts,
where length DA = 5 miles, BD = 4 miles and AB = width = ?
Since each angle of a rectangle is right-angle, so triangle ABD will be a right-angled triangle.
Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle ABD, we have

Thus, the required width of the park is 3 miles.
4(x-3)-(2x+5)=-3x-27
4*x - 4*3 - 2x - 5 = -3x - 27
4x - 12 - 2x - 5 = -3x - 27
2x - 17 = -3x - 27
2x + 3x = -27 + 17
5x = -10 / : 5
x = -2
Answer:
1.5326
Step-by-step explanation:
there is no more simplification it can only be calculated by a calculator
Answer: $2.50
for rounding to the tenths, look at the hundredths place and if it is more than 5 round up :)
