Answer:

45 DOLLARS

Step-by-step explanation:

For these kind of problems, write an equation to figure out the answer.

55 + 2x = 145

x represents the bag cost

145 is the shoe cost

Take out the constant, which is 55, from both sides. A constant is a useful term you should learn.

The result is: 2x = 90

Divide 2x by 2, to get x, which is the bag cost, by itself.

Result: x= 45

Since x is the bag cost, the bag costs 45 dollars

A rectangle has a length that is three times the width . The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 feet.what is the area of the recta
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The area is 15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

So you are going to need two different equations-

l = w(3)

2l + 2w = 40

Insert the first equation into the second-

2(3w) + 2w = 40

Simplify this equation-

6w + 2w = 40

8w = 40

Divide both sides by 5

w = 5

Solve first equation

l = 5(3)

l = 15

Then find the area-

5 x 15 = 75
