Answer:
Can only be simplified through calculator using decimal equivalents.
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle is the formula P=2l+2w. Here and . So the perimeter is:
The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter of the triangle you need to add up all the sides, so if all the sides are 2x-3 the equation will look like this;
2x-3+2x-3+2x-3=27
which when combining like terms will leave it to be;
6x-9=27
Than move all the factors besides x over to the right side;
6x-9+9=27+9
6x = 36
6x/6 = 36/6
x = 6
so your answer will be x=6
<h3>4 times a number increased by 3.</h3>
When we have a number that appears
right before a variable, it means multiplication.
So 4n means the same thing as 4 times a number.
Remember, n is a variable which is just a
letter that represents any number.
Since we are adding 3 to 4n, we can say
4 times a number increased by 3.
So 4n + 3 can be written as 4 times a number increased by 3.
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
If the sum of the measures of angle M and R is 90 degrees, and you know that angle R is 55 degrees, subtract angle R from the total angle. Then, solve for M
90 - 55 = 35
5x + 10 = 35
5x = 25
x = 5
