Lets write as an equation the info provided in the problem:
original area = 200*300 = 60000 squared meters
Adding x meters to the length is: 300 + x
Adding x meters to the width is: 200 + x
If the area doubles in size we have: 2*<span>60000
Now writing as a single equation all info:
(300 + x)(200 + x) = 120000
We have to make the operations and solve:
60000 + 300x + 200x + x^2 = </span><span>120000
x^2 + 500x - 60000 = 0
This is a squared trinomial, to solve it we need two numbers that subtracted give us 500 and multiplied -60000:
(x + 600)(x -100) = 0
So there are two solutions, x = -600 and x = 100, we choose the positive one:
x = 100
thererefore the value of x is 100 meters</span>
Answer:
Best Buy 30% of 379.99=113.99
379.99-113.99=$266.00
Costco 15% 409.99=61.50
409.99-61.50=348.49
Target 25% of 399.99=99.99
399.99-99.99=300
Best Buy has the best offer.

Answer:
$503.85
Step-by-step explanation:
The amortization formula can help with this.
A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-n))
where P is the loan value, A is the monthly payment, r is the annual interest rate, and n is the number of monthly payments.
We want to find P. All of the other values are given.
P = A(1 -(1 +r/12)^-n)/(r/12)
P = 32.48(1 -1.012667^-18)/(0.012667) = 31.48·16.0054
P ≈ 503.85
The equivalent cash price is about $503.85.

Answer:
Shawn
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the amount of vehicles sold in one week by dividing the total vehicles sold by the number of weeks
Shawn:
36 vehicles / 4 weeks
9 vehicles/week
Brett:
56 vehicles / 7 weeks
8 vehicles/week
9 is greater than 8 so Shawn sells more vehicles per week
