Answer:

75 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(length)+2(width). The length and total of the perimeter was given to us, so the equation looks like 2(48)+2(w)=246

96+2w=246 (multiply and add where you can on both sides)

2w=150 (get all of the variables on one side and the numbers on the other)

w=75 (simplify to get your final answer)

width is 75 inches. [make sure to add the units!]

<h3>For 22 kilometers, the two companies charge the same total fare</h3><h3>The total fare is $ 48</h3>

Solution:

Let "x" be the kilometers travelled

For, Mr buchanan, the first cost $26 upfront and $1 per kilometer

Therefore,

Cost : 26 + 1x ------- eqn 1

The second costs $4 plus $2 per kilometer

Therefore,

Cost : 4 + 2x -------- eqn 2

For a certain driving distance, the two companies charge the same total fare

Therefore, eqn 1 must be equal to eqn 2

26 + 1x = 4 + 2x

2x - 1x = 26 - 4

x = 22

Thus, for 22 kilometers, the two companies charge the same total fare

What is the total fare?

Substitute x = 22 in eqn 2

Cost: 4 + 2(22) = 4 + 44 = 48

Thus total fare is $ 48

tigry1 [53]

800+75h=a. 800 is what she started with so you have to add that on to the 75 acorns per hour she gets, since you don't know how many hours the variable remains h and a is going to represent the total number at the end
