Answer:
D) Abner can spend $60 per month on school clothes and $20 per month on gym clothes and stay within his budget.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the problem it states that Abner will spend 3 times more on (s)school clothes than (g) gym clothes.
So it would appear as s ≥ 3g.
If we plug in $60 as s (school clothes) and $20 as g (gym clothes), the statement is true.
60 ≥ 3(20)
60 ≥ 60. These numbers make the linear system true.
If you have trouble with this, an easy way to find this answer is simply creating the linear system that represents the problem, (he will buy 3 times more school clothes than gym clothes) s ≥ 3g and plug in each variable from the answer choices until you find the variables that make the linear system true.
We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is twice the length, plus twice the width.
P = 2L + 2W
We also know that the perimeter is 156.
P = 156
Finally, we know that the width is 12 less than the length.
W = L - 12.
The next thing that we do is substitute the information that we have into the original equation:
P = 2L + 2W
156 = 2L + 2(L - 12)
From this point we start to solve
156 = 2L + 2L - 24 <---we multiplied the '2' through the parenthesis
156 + 24 = 2L + 2L - 24 + 24
180 = 2L + 2L <--- getting like terms on same sides
180 = 4L <---combining like terms
180/4 = 4L/4 <--- getting like terms on same sides
45 = L <---now we have a value for L
Now we take the known value for L and substitute it in to our equation for W
W = L - 12
W = 45 - 12
W = 33
So now we have Length = 45 and Width = 33.
