Take the amount that he pays for his mortgage, so $2042, and divide that by his total pay, $5950. You’ll get .34016907. Then to make a decimal into a percentage, you multiply it by 100. This gives you 34%, meaning he spends less than the national average on housing.
(2*length)+(2*width)=perimeter
length=4+2w
(2(4+2w))+(2(w))=74
74=(8+4w)+(2w)
74=6w+8
66=6w
w=11
length=4+2(11)
l=4+22
l=26
Answer: x = 35
Explanation: In this problem, notice that D is being divided by 5,
so to get D by itself, we need to multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
Notice that on the left side, the 5 and 5 cancel
each other out, so we are just left with D.
On the right side, we have (7)(5) which is 35.
So x = 35.
Finally, remember that we can check our answer
by plugging a 35 back into the original equation.
So we have
.
Since this is a true statement, we know that our answer is correct, x = 35.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given AB ≅ BC, then
AB = BC = x + 6 , and
AC = AB + BC ← substitute values
3x - 31 = x + 6 + x + 6, that is
3x - 31 = 2x + 12 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
x - 31 = 12 ( add 31 to both sides )
x = 43
Hence
AB = BC = x + 6 = 43 + 6 = 49
AC = 3x - 31 =(3 × 43) - 31 = 129 - 31 = 98
