I take it we aren't solving for x.
So
2x + 28 + 9 - 5
2x + 28 + 4
2x + 32.
Answer:
Patricia = $47.5 ;
Greg = $57.5 ;
$10
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle : 2(l + b)
Patricia :
7ft * 12 ft
2(7 + 12) = 2(19) = 38 ft
Total fencing cost :
1.25 * 38 = $47.5 ft
Greg:
8ft by 15ft
2(8 + 15) = 2(23) = 46ft
Total fencing cost :
1.25 * 46 = $57.5
Difference in cost :
57.5 - 47.5 = $10
100=1,478,300
1000=1,478,000
10,000=1,470,000
The answer to this problem is v=-16
3rd option.
at least shows that the number can be equal to 2, and also that 2 should be the smallest possible value of the number.
