Answer:
Option a. $300
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the cost of the rent monthly per person
we know that
The number of persons is 3 (Sal and two friends)
The cost of the security deposit per person is equal to
If Sal paid a total of $1,000 to move in
then
That means that the cost per person of two months of rent (first and last month) plus $400 (security deposit per person) must be equal to $1,000
solve for x
9514 1404 393
Answer:
c. 1150 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is 125/2 = 62.5 units. The long side is 4/5 of that, so is 50 units.
The area is the product of the long side and the height to the long side:
A = bh
A = (50 units)(23 units) = 1150 units²
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
This geometry is impossible, because the height from the long side cannot be more than the length of the short side. Here, the short side is 12.5 units, so it is not possible for the height to be 23 units.
If the height is measured from the short side, then the area is 287.5 square units.
