Answer:

2x +2y -8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equal sides are 'a' and the third side is 'b', then the perimeter is ...

P = a +a +b = 2a +b

The length of the third side is then ...

b = P -2a . . . . . . subtract 2a from both sides

Substituting the given expressions, we find ...

b = (10x +4y -18) -2(4x +y -5)

b = 10x +4y -18 -8x -2y +10

b = 2x +2y -8 . . . . the length of the third side

The wholesale club sells a large box of crackers with 12 reams of crackers for $9.89. Your local store’s box of crackers has 4 r

Semenov [28]

To start off take the number of reams of crackers and divide by the total cost of the box: 12/9.89=1.21 and 4/4.29=0.93 to find out how much you pay per ream.
Then what I did was 12x0.93=11.16 (to find out how much you'd be paying with the local price)
Finally subtract 11.16-9.89= 1.27.
So in total you'd save $1.27.
Hope this helps
