Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5

Equation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
y = -3x - 9
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 1
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = -9, I should get y = 0
When x = -9
y = -3 (-9) - 9
= 18 (I did not get 0, wrong)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 2
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = -3, I should get y = 0
y = -3(-3) - 9
y = 9 - 9
y = 0 (Yes, I got 0, correct)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = 0, I should get y = -3
y = -3 (0) - 9
y = 0 - 9
y = -9 (I did not get -3, wrong)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option 4
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I substitute x = 0, I should get y = -9
y = -3 (0) - 9
y = 0 - 9
y = -9 (Yes, I got -9, correct)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: (-3, 0) and (0, 9) are ordered pairs of the equation (Answer B, D)

Answer: Assuming you mean that the original cost was doubled and now equals $60, the camera costed $30. Assuming the camera's price has been doubled from $60, it is $120. The wording is a bit unclear, so I'm giving you both answers.
Step-by-step explanation: To find half of the price of $60, simply divide it by 2, which gives you $30.
Answer:
for the first question it would be A. 4+8+16+32 because infinite series are such as :
9,18,36,72,144,288
10,20,40,80,160,
so basically its multiplying *2
I cant do #2 without seeing the formula
Answer: Okay the numbers you put was confusing but I think I got it.
42÷6=x
