Find the area of all the sides and then divide each area by two. add them all up to get your answer.
Answer:
8763
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of students the college had last year. Then this year's enrollment is ...
... x - 3%·x = 8500
... x(1 - 0.03) = 8500 . . . . . collect terms
... x = 8500/0.97 ≈ 8762.89 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Enrollment last year was about 8763.
_____
Of course, you know 3% = 3/100 = 0.03.
X=1, x=-7 would be the correct answer.
simply multiply the cost of the large pool equipment set by three to get the answer. So, $1,042*3= $3126
