Answer:

The answer is 135

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use formula: 162...120% since the price was increased by 20% which means it is 120%

So: 162...120%

x.... 100%

120x = 16200 => x = 135

Answer:

(-1, -1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

A coordinate is a point (a single place) on a graph. Coordinates can be recorded as (#, #).

The first number is the one on the x-axis (left/right) and the second number is the one on the y-axis (up/down). (x, y) The middle point, where the x-axis and y-axis meet is called the origin, and is at (0,0).

The point that marks the campground is at -1 on the x-axis and -1.5 on the y axis.

Because the y-axis has two lines for every whole number, the line in between is the halfway mark and counts as a 0.5 increment.

Find the area of a square if the perimeter is equal to 38 in.
Misha Larkins [42]
Hello! I would love to help!

Alright! We know that perimeter is basically adding all the sides of a shape together. We also know that a square has 4 sides, so 38 is the result of 4 sides being added. Now, we also know that all sides of a square are even. So, to find one side of a square, we just need to do 38/4


38/4=9.5


Alright. So now we know one side of a square is 9.5 in. We know that in order to find area, we have to multiply length and width. We know that since all sides of a square are even, 9.5 is both our length and width. So, in order to find the area, we just have to multiply 9.5 by 9.5

9.5*9.5=90.25

Alright! So we have determined your answer!!!


90.25 or in fraction form 90 1/4 inches squared!

Hope this helped! Comment if you have questions!!

Solve for x. 5(x 1) = 4(x 8)
tresset_1 [31]
Asssuming blanks are plus

5(x+1)=4(x+8)

distribute
a(b+c)=ab+ac

5(x+1)=5x+5

4(x+8)=4x+32

5x+5=4x+32
minus 4x from both sides
x+5=32
minus 5 from both sides
x=27
