Answer:
the question is invalid. please rewrite the question.
The width is 2 and the length is 4 hope this helps!
1/5x + 3 = 10
Subtract by 3 on both sides.
1/5x = 7.
Now to isolate the variable, flip the coefficient in front of the variable and multiply both sides by it.
5(1/5x) = 7(5)
x = 7(5)
x = 35
Now to check:
1/5(35) + 3 = 10
35/5 + 3 = 10
35/5 is 7.
7 + 3 = 10
10 = 10
Answer: the number of item A that you sold is 11
the number of item B that you sold is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of item A that you sold.
Let y represent the number of item B that you sold.
The total number of item A and item B sold is 13. This means that
x + y = 13
The cost of item A is $8 and the
cost of item B is $4. The total amount if money made is $88. This means that
8x + 4y = 88 - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 13 - y into equation 1, it becomes
8(13 - y) + 4y = 88
104 - 8y = 88
8y = 104 - 88 = 16
y = 16/8 = 2
x = 13 - y = 13 - 2 = 11
