We can say L as length and W as the width 

L= 3w + 8 

The formula for perimeter is 2L + 2W = P. We can substitute L in as "3w+8" to make the equation... 

2(3w+8)+2w=88        Now, we can simplify by distributing the 2 to each term
6w+16+2w=88
8w+16=88               Then subtract 16 from each side..
8w=72
w=9

So the width is 9, so we can substitue that into the previous equation, L = 3w+8. 

L=3(9)+8
L=27+8
L=35, W=9

Isaac is making soft pretzel nuggets. His recipe says that, after he makes the dough, he should divide it into 8 equal pieces. T
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 192 pretzels

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

number of pieces = 8

length of each piece = 2 ft

length of each pretzel = 1 in

number of pretzels = x

Process

1.- Convert ft to in

                        1 ft --------------- 12 in

                         2 ft --------------- x

                         x = (2 x 12) / 1

                         x = 24 ft

2.- Divide the length of each piece by the length of each pretzel

                       24/1 = 24 pretzels per piece

3.- Multiply the number of pretzels per the number of pieces

                       24 x 8 = 192 pretzels

Write an equation for each sentence and then solve.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive numbers be 2n and 2n+2

The sum of these numbers in 2n + (2n+2).

Hence

2n + (2n+2) = 34

4n + 2 = 34

4n  = 32

n =8.

Suppose that you have $6,000 to invest. Which investment yields the greater return over a 10 year period: 7.44% compounded daily
Nikitich [7]
Hi
Here is you answer mate
But don’t forget to mark me the brainliest


Plug the applicable numbers into the compound interest formula and see which is more.
A = p(1+r/n)nt
A = future amount
p =principal investment
r = interest rate as a decimal
n = number times compounded per year
t = time in years

A = 5000(1+.0743/365)365(10)
= 5000(1.000203562)3650 = $10,510.38

A = 5000(1+.075/4)4(10)
= 5000(1.01875)40 = $10,511.75

As you can see these are practically equal, but the 7.5% quarterly is more.
