Answer:
Step (2) is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is given by :
A = length × width
Area = 8+12x
Width = 4
Step 1: 8 + 12x
Step 2: 4(2) + 4(3x)
Step 3: 4(2 + 3x)
Step 4: Dimensions of the rectangle are 4 and 2 + 3x.
It means he has done a mistake in step (2). The correct step should be 4(2) + 4(3x).

For this case we have that the original price of the book is given by:
$ 19.75
The customer has a coupon to save part of the price of the book.
Therefore, the customer will pay

Where,
x: value of the customer coupon.
We know that the customer has a coupon that has a value of $ 4.50.
Substituting values we have:

Answer:
she will pay for the book 15.25 $
Ay/x = cz
Multiply 'x' to both sides:
Ay = czx
Divide 'A' to both sides:
y = (czx)/(A)
1/2 + 9/20 = 19/20
1/20 + 1/10 = 3/20
1/8 + 11/16 = 13/16
2/9 + 5/9 = 7/9
3/20 + 3/4 = 18/20 = 9/10
7/17 + 1/17 = 8/17
