Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let the width = x

Let the length = x + 5

Equation

2w + 2W = P

Solution

2x + 2(x + 5) = 192                  Remove the brackets    <=== Answer

2x + 2x + 10 = 192                  Combine like terms

4x + 10 = 192                          Subtract 10 from both sides

4x = 192 - 10                        

4x = 182                                 Divide by 4

4x/4 = 182/4

x = 45.5

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Option A)

15x + 10y \geq 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Cost of orange/black shirt = $15

Cost of black/white shirt = $10

Amount of money to be raised is atleast $1000.

Let x be the amount of orange/black shirt and y be the amount of  black/white shirt.

Thus, we can write the inequality:

15x + 10y \geq 1000

That is the total cost of orange/black shirt and black/white shirt should be greater than or equal to $1000.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option A)

15x + 10y \geq 1000

erik [133]

Answer:

explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Large companies in most cases, buy other smaller firms to benefit from their products or to snap up the talents they have in their system. There are also cases in which such acquisitions are made to destroy competition the smaller companies present.  

This form of acquisition can be termed “killer acquisition as the larger group tends to terminate the projects of the smaller companies and shelve whatever competing innovative projects they have before they can hit the markets with them.  

This type of scenario is known to be quite pervasive and could in some ways be very detrimental to the society. When competition is eliminated, people buy whatever they see with no alternatives around and in most cases, they pay exorbitant amount of money for telco products and services.
