Answer:
25 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Information that is needed to solve the problem;
The formula for the perimeter is:
2(a+b) = P
where "a" is the length and "b" is the width.
2. Solving the problem;
Substitute the given values into the formula;
2( 5 + b ) = 58
Inverse operations;
2 ( 5 + b ) = 58
/2 /2
5 + b = 29
-5 -5
b = 25
Answer: 8 days
Step-by-step explanation:
6 miles has been paved already.
Number of miles left = 30 - 6
= 24 miles
If they are paving at 3 miles a day, the days they will take to finish is:
= 24/3
= 8 days
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both equations give y in terms of x, equate the right sides
3x - 28 = - 2x + 22 ( add 2x to both sides )
5x - 28 = 22 ( add 28 to both sides )
5x = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 10
She orders 5 pair in 5 different sizes:
5 x 5 = 25 pair
She orders 3 pair in 3 different sizes:
3 x 3 = 9 pair
Total pairs = 25 + 9 = 34 pair.
