Answer:

14 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the width of the patio, we will use the formula of the perimeter, in the case of the rectangle it has the formula of:

p = 2 * l + 2 * w

Now we know that the total fencing value is $ 976 and that per foot is $ 16

that is, we can calculate the value of the perimeter, like this:

976/16 = 61

We know that the perimeter is 61 feet and that the length is 16.5, therefore it only remains to replace:

61 = 16.5 * 2 + 2 * w

solving for w:

w = (61 - 33) / 2

w = 14

which means that the width of the patio is 14 feet.

A washer and a dryer cost $772 combined. The washer cost $72 more than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer
melamori03 [73]
Dryer cost represented by x
Then, the washer costs (x + $72)
Together, they cost (x) + (x+72) = $772
2x+72 = 772
[subtract 97 from both sides]
x = 350
[divide both sides by 2]

The dryer cost $350

The washer cost $422.

Together, they cost $772

F(x) = -7x - 1<br> f() = -8
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

  f(1) = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, you want the argument of the function such that the function value is -8. Fill in the given information and solve for x:

  -8 = -7x -1

  -7 = -7x . . . . add 1

  1 = x . . . . . . . divide by -7

Now, you know that ...

  f(1) = -8

Jeanine baker makes floral arrangements. She has 12 different cut flowers and plans to use 5 of them. How many different selecti
Alona [7]
Assuming that the order of selection is not important, this is a question of number of ways. In other words, the combination should be computed. That is,

Number of ways of selection 5 flowers = 12C5 = 12!/{5!*(12-5)!} = 12!/{5!*7!} = 792

Therefore, there are 792 ways in which 5 flowers can be selected from the available 12 flowers.
