Answer:
6; 22; 20 (ft.)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) if the length of the each side are: n; 4n-2 and 4n-4, then the expression of the perimeter can be written: P=n+4n-2+4n-4 or P=9n-6.
2) if according to the condition perimeter is 48 (ft.), then
9n-6=P; ⇔ 9n-6=48; n=6.
3) if n=6, then the required lengths of the sides are:
n=6 (ft.);
4n-2=22 (ft.);
4n-4=20 (ft.)
So paid160
75 percent off
100 percent=original
75 percent off=100-75=25%
160=25% of original cost
'of' means multiply
remember tha tpercent is parts out of 100 so
25%=25/100=1/4
160=1/4 times original cost
multily both sides by 4
640=original cost
answe ris $640 =original cost
