Answer:

$5.61

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first of all, 15% off of 1.20 is 1.02. Then, multiply that by 5 1/2 to get $5.61.

The length of the sides of a square measure 2x-5. The length of a rectangle measures 2x, and the width measures x + 2. For what
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a square:

The perimeter of a square of side x is given by:

P_s = 4x

Perimeter of a rectangle:

The perimeter of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by:

P_r = 2(l + w)

The length of the sides of a square measure 2x-5.

This means that the perimeter of the square is:

P_s = 4(2x - 5) = 8x - 20

The length of a rectangle measures 2x, and the width measures x + 2.

This means that the perimeter of the rectangle is:

P_r = 2(2x + x + 2) = 2(3x + 2) = 6x + 4

For what value of x is the perimeter of the square the same as the perimeter of the rectangle?

This is x for which:

P_s = P_r

So

8x - 20 = 6x + 4

8x - 6x = 20 + 4

2x = 24

x = \frac{24}{2}

x = 12

Does anyone know what the simplest form is? Will give brainiest
Ahat [919]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Choice B.

Discussion:

From the first step

324 x^6 y^ 8 =  

2^2 * 3^4 * x^2 * x^4* y^8

so the fourth root of this is

2 ^(2/4)*  3^(4/4) x^(2/4)* x^(4/4)*y^(8/4) =

2^ (1/2) * 3^1 * x^(1/2) * x^(1)* y^ (2) =

(2x)^(1/2) * 3 * x * y^2 =

3 * x * y^2 * sqrt(2x) =

3 * x * y^2 * ( (2x)^2) ^ (1/4)) =

3 * x * y^2 * (4x^2) ^ (1/4)

which is choice B

Thank you,

MrB

USPshnik [31]
-5 - 12 = -17

Starts at -5 degrees, then it drops another 12, so you subtract 12 from -5.
