Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
the answer is C or A. I believe
A, plug in 12 for x and -7 for y to get you’re answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this equation we will need to use what we know in order to find the answer.
If Huge ate 5/8's of the pizza and 8/8's creates a whole pizza then the question is quite simple. There is only 1/8's remaining after the boys finish their meal but 5/8's of the pizza was already eaten by Hugo meaning Lucas has to eat 2/8's of the pizza in order for there to be only 1/8's of the pizza left which means 2/8's is your answer.
Hope this helps.
It’s not loading for me,it’s prob my wifi or phone, I’ll try to solve when it loads
