Here,

Perimeter (P)=86 feet

Length (l)=25 feet

Let, width(b)= x feet

Then,

Perimeter= 2(l+b)

86=2(25+x)

43=25+x

x=18

Hence, required width is 18 feet...

Answer:

A.

$(\frac{3}{3+5})(2 - (-14))+ (-14)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ratio = 3:5

Q = -14

S = 2

Required

Which solution uses $(\frac{m}{m+n})(x_2 - x_1)+ x_1$

From the given parameters;

$m:n = 2:5$

$m = 2\ and\ n = 5$

$x_1 = -14\ and\ x_2 = 2$

Substitute the above values in $(\frac{m}{m+n})(x_2 - x_1)+ x_1$

This gives:

$(\frac{m}{m+n})(x_2 - x_1)+ x_1$

$(\frac{3}{3+5})(2 - (-14))+ (-14)$

<em>From the list of given options, only option A uses the given form of the formula...</em>

HURRY QUICK!!! Find the solution set of the inequality.<br><br>8x - 8 < ( or equal to ) -72

slava [35]

I would take away the 8's, and that would leave x standing, so X could either be -72 or less than -72,

Over the course of a year, a tractor-trailer commutes 160,000 miles across America.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

a. 4 sets of tires in a year.

b. 17 times a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. I just divided 160,000 by 40,000 to get 4 sets a year.

b. I divided 160,000 by 10,000 and then added 1 to get 17 times a year. I added one because the problem said that the trucker changes the oil in the beginning of the year.
