Answer: The area is 
+ 18w
Step-by-step explanation:
We could represent the length of the yard by l = w+18 and the width as w .
And to find the area we will have to multiply the length by the width.
A= w(w+18 ) multiply
A= + 18w
Answer:
The value of s is "90". A further explanation is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is:
⇒ 10=s÷2+7
i.e,
⇒ 
On solving the above expression, we get
⇒ 
On applying cross-multiplication, we get
⇒ 
⇒ 
1/4th of Mai’s height is equal to 2/5th of Jon’s height
Let 'x' represent Mai's height and 'y' represent Jon's height.
Therefore, 1/4th of "x" should be equal to 2/5th of "y". This gives us the following equation :
(1/4)x = (2/5)y
multiply both sides by 4/y
x/y = 4*(2/5)
x/y = 8/5
x:y = 8:5
The ratio of Mai's s height to Jon's height is 8 to 5
You calculate the markup or markdown in absolute terms (you find by how much the quantity changed), and then you calculate the percent change relative to the original value. So they're really just another form of "increase - decrease" exercises.
Example:
A computer software retailer used a markup rate of 40%. Find the selling price of a computer game that cost the retailer $25.
The markup is 40% of the $25 cost, so the markup is:
(0.40)(25) = 10
Then the selling price, being the cost plus markup, is:
25 + 10 = 35
The item sold for $35.
Answer:
you want to isolat U on one side, so subtract 9/-4 from both sides to end up with (9/-4) - 9 = u, then solve. (9/-4)-9 = -11.25, so -11.25 = u
