Answer:

Length = 42, Width = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

You write out the equation for the length, which is L=2w-8 (Length is L and width is W) You substitute in the length in the original equation, 2L + 2W = 134 ( I got this equation from knowing that 2 lengths plus 2 widths equals the perimeter, 134.) Substitute 2w-8 for L, you're left with 2(2w-8) + 2w = 134. Simplify further, you have 4w-16+2w=134. Once you're done, you have W=25. Plug that back into the original equation, then solve. L = 2(25)-8, L=42.

The value of a car with an initial purchase price of $18,250 depreciates by<br><br> 11% per year.
larisa [96]

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem on depreciation of price.

Given data

initial price = $18,250

rate of depreciation = 11%

to solve for the new price we must find 11 percent of the initial price (depreciated value) and subtract from the initial price, we have

depreciation=

\frac{11}{100} *18250\\0.11*18250= 2007.5

Hence the depreciation= $2007.50

the new amount is = initial amount - depreciation

=18250-2007.50\\= 16242.50

the new amount is $16242.50

Multiply and reduce to lowest form 1 2/5×1 7/10
LuckyWell [14K]
The answer is 2 19/50.
First of all you have to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions. So, 1 2/5 is equal to 7/5 and 1 7/10 is equal to 17/10. Next you multiply the denominators by the denominators and multiply the numerator by the numerator. 7 times 17 is 119 and 5 times 10 is 50. So the fraction is 119/50. You convert the improper fraction into a mixed number, which is 2 19/50.
