Answer:
equation is: width = area / length
width = 62.5 yd
Explanation:
For the first rectangle:
We have:
length = 75 yd and width = 60 yd
Therefore:
area = length * width
area = 75 * 60
area = 4500 yd²
For the second rectangle:
We have:
area = area of first rectangle = 4500 yd²
length = 72 yd
area = length * width
width = area / length ............> The required equation
width = 4500 / 72
width = 62.5 yd
Hope this helps :)
Answer: price of the watch before the discount is £23.5825
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the original price of the watch.
Jason went shopping he bought a watch and a pair of trainers for a total price of £53.55. This price includes 15% loyalty discount. The value of the discount is
15/100 × 53.55 = 8.0325
This means that the original cost of both items is
53.55 + 8.0325 = 61.5825
Before the discounts, the trainers were priced at £38. Therefore,
38 + x = 61.5825
x = 61.5825 - 38
x = 23.5825
Let x, represent the number of minutes and y represents the number of gallons of water in the tub, then the ordered pairs (2, 30) and (5, 12) satisfies the equation.
Therefore the equation is given by: (y - 30)/(x - 2) = (12 - 30)/(5 - 2)
(y - 30)/(x - 2) = -18/3 x = -6
y - 30 = -6(x - 2) = -6x + 12
y = -6x + 42
Required equation is y + 6x = 42.
Let Y = total cost of both schools.
The total cost would be ( number of credits at Westside x 98) + (number of credits at Pinewood x 115).
The total number of credits he is taking is 14.
If w is the number of credits at Westside, then for Westside you have 98w ( $98 times the number of credit hours)
The equation is now y = 98w + (number of credits at Pinewood x 115).
The number of credit hours at Pinewood would be the total credit hours 14 minus the credit hours at Westside w, so you have 14-w, which needs to be multiplied by the cost at Pinewood.
The equation is now y = 98w + 115(14-w)
This can be simplified using the distributive property to:
Y = 98w + 1610 - 115w
Y = -17w + 1610
