Answer:
The business' total revenue last year was $65,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, if you need to find the previous year's total revenue, you would set up an equation like this:
x + 0.38x = 89,700
I think it would work out something like this:
x + 0.38x = 89,700
1.38x = 89,700
x = 65,000
To check, we would substitute 65,000 into the equation x + 0.38x = 89,700.
x + 0.38x = 89,700
(65,000) + 0.38(65,000) = 89,700
65,000 + 24,700 = 89,700
89,700 = 89,700
The answer is 72 because ice cream has a lot of sugar in it
Answer:
D: 160
Step-by-step explanation:
Fifth graders read 68, which is easy to see. Fourth graders read between 48 and 52, the bar appears to be directly in the middle of the two lines, so we say they read 50. Third graders read between 40 and 44, again the bar appears to be directly in the middle so we say they read 42.
42+50+68=160
Answer: length = 24 ft
Width = 8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the barn.
Let W represent the width of the barn.
The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 192 sq. Ft. This means that
LW = 192- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
It's length is 8 ft longer than twice it's width. This means that
L = 2W + 8
Substituting L = 2W + 8 into equation 1, it becomes
W(2W + 8) = 192
2W² + 8W = 192
2W² + 8W - 192 = 0
Dividing through by 2, it becomes
W² + 4W - 96 = 0
W² + 12W - 8W - 96 = 0
W(W + 12) - 8(W + 12) = 0
(W - 8)(W + 12) = 0
W = 8 or W = - 12
Since the width cannot be negative, then W = 8
L = 192/W = 192/8
L = 24
