Answer:

2.25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimter= 28ft

W= x ft

L= 3x+5

but

P=2L+2W

substitute

28=2*(3x+5)+2x

28=6x+10+2x

collet like terms

28=8x+10

28-10= 8x

18=8x

divide both sides by 8

x= 18/8

x=2.25 ft

Hence the width is 2.25 ft

Answer:

Option C. \$23,134.61

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A=\frac{P[(1+r)^{n} -1]}{r(1+r)^{n}}

we have

P=\$400

r=0.075/12=0.00625

n=6*12=72\ months

substitute in the formula

A=\frac{400[(1+0.00625)^{72} -1]}{0.00625(1+0.00625)^{72}}\\ \\A=\frac{226.446972}{0.009788}\\ \\A=\$23,134.61
