Answer:

L=10.326cm

P=31.30cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A=55=L*W

L=5+W

A = (5+W)(W) = 55

55=W^2 + 5W

0 = W^2 + 5W - 55

use quadratic formula

W = [-5 (+/-) sqrt(25-4(-55))]/2

W= 5.326 cm or W=-20.65, so W=5.326cm

L=5+5.326

=10.326cm

P=2W+2L

P=2(5.326) + 2(10.326)

=31.30 centimeters

A McDonald employee makes $387.50 a week. If he decides to save 10 %of that, how much money would he have left to spend?
larisa [96]
If he decides to save 10% he decided to save 38.75 since 387.50×.10 is 387500 (move decimal 4 times to figure out what the percentage of 387.50 is since the $ already has 2 numbers after the decimals and so does .10 which =38.75 this is what he saves so subtract this from 387.50 to find out what he has left to spend
387.50-38.75= 348.75

Step-by-step explanation:

He has already gone 4/8 of a mile (3/8 + 1/8) and he needs to go 8/8 of a mile. 8/8 - 4/8 = 4/8. You can simplify that to 1/2.
