Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume the number Peggy is thinking of be "x".
Now as given, when twice the number is added to three times one more than the number. We can write it as
∴
--- Equation 1
Again, it is given that Peggy gets the same result as when she multiplies four times one less than the number.
∴
-- equation 2
Next, we can equate both the equation 1 and 2 as it is given that result is same.

Let´s distribute 3 into
and 4 into 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Subtract both side by 4x and 3
∴ 
∴ Peggy was thinking of -7
Answer:
30 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
SO we need to find the area of the wall so we do
8 feet * 5 feet = 40 feet squared
then we find that area in inches
40*12=480
Now we find the area of the tiles
4*4=16
So now we divide to find how many tiles are needed
480/16=30
Our answer is 30
88 * 2 = 176 ;
88 * 3 = 264 ;
88 * 4 = 362 ;

Answer: 12
Step-by-step explanation:
You can multiply by 12 because to get rid of the fractions all terms should be divided by the LCM (ie the smallest multiple that is exactly divisible by 2, 4 and 3)
Multiples of 3 = 3, 6, 9, 12
Multiples of 4 = 4, 8, 12, 16
Multiples of 2 = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
Therefore the fractions should be multiplied by 12
Answer:
25% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
length is 24 inches after the increase and width is 33 inches (i did length as up and down and width as side to side, that's how I always do it but I might be wrong let me know and I can fix it)
the area before it gets increased it 600
after the increase its 792
and 600 is 75.75% of 792
so it would be 25.25% increase
sorry this was so long hope this helps
