To start, let x represent the width and x+100 represent the length.
Since the perimeter of a figure is the sum of all the measurements of the side which can be represented by (x+100)+(x+100)+x+x and since you know your perimeter is 960 feet, you can set the expression equal to 960. This would look like this:
(x+100)+(x+100)+x+x=960
Once you have done that, combine any like terms (combine terms with the same variables and raised to the same power together) which would simplify to this:
4x+200=960
Now that you have your like terms simplified, subtract 200 from both sides to get 4x=760 and finally, to solve for x, or find the width, divide both sides by 4 to get x=190.
Now that you have your width, now you must find your length as the question asks to find the dimensions of the rectangular field. To find the length, add 100 to the width of (190) since according to the information given, the length is 100 more than the width. When you add 100 to 190, you should get that your length is 290.
Now that you have your length and width, you can conclude that the dimensions of the field is 190 by 290 feet, which is your answer :)
Based on the information given, it should be noted that the correct option is C. 3x - 8.

From the information given, it was stated that Kim has 8 dollars less than twice Ricky. This will be:
= (2 × x) - 8.
= 2x - 8
Also, Ricky has x dollars. Therefore, the amount that they have together will be:
= 2x - 8 + x
= 3x - 8

Answer:
12.5 un^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for area of a trapezoid is (a+b)/2 *h
a and b are the shorter and longer bases respectively. H is height, you have both.
Simply plug it into the equation and find your answer.
(2.5+7.5)/2 *2.5 = 5*2.5 which is equal to 12.5. Add units.

So, do get the answer, you have to find out who got more of the votes, either Carl Green or Maria Lewis. Once you have found out who has more votes, you take the bigger number and subtract the smaller number from it. If you get a negative number, or a number below 0, you have unfortunately have the wrong answer for the problem
