Answer: 123 square feet
Step-by-step explanation: The question is a little odd, but I can break it down easily. It wants us to find the area of a three foot border around his room.
First, the whole area of his room is 20 x 24 = 480
Next, we have to make the measurements 3 feet smaller on each wall, so 17 x 21 = 357
Finally, to find the area of the border, we simply do 480 - 357 = 123
He needs to buy 123 square feet of carpeting
Hope this helps!
Age of Jen is 13.6 years old
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the age of Jack and "y" be the age of Jen
Given that This Christmas, your brother Jack will be 2 years from being twice as old as your sister Jen
The above sentence can be written mathematically as:
Jack age + 2 = twice of age of Jen
The sum of Jacks age and three times Jen's age is 66
Jack age + three times Jen age = 66
x + 3y = 66 ---- eqn 2
Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2
2y - 2 + 3y = 66
5y - 2 = 66
5y = 68
<h3>y = 13.6</h3>
Thus age of Jen is 13.6 years old
C because if the denominator equals x-2 that means that the horizontal asymptote happens at x=2. And because the numerator and denominator have the same degree then you divide leading coefficients to get the vertical asymptote at y=-2
I would say B is the best choice.
The answer is C: Expression b and d
Expression A is used when you want to know how much $$ was taken off the original
Expression C won’t work at all because it’s like saying what is $1 subtract discount.
Expression B and D is saying original,P, subtract discount price=sales price
