Henry has a fenced yard in the shape of a rectangle with a perimeter that measures 242 feet. If the width of the yard measures 5
1 feet, what is the length?
_(blank)_ feet
1 answer:
Answer: Length = 70 feet
Concept:
Here, we need to know how to find the perimeter of a rectangle.
Perimeter (rectangle) = 2 (l + w)
l = length
w = width
Solve:
<u>Given information</u>
l = l
w = 51 feet
P = 242 feet
<u>Given expression</u>
P = 2 (l + w)
<u>Substitute values into the expression</u>
242 = 2 (l + 51)
<u>Divide 2 on both sides</u>
242 / 2 = 2 (l + 51) / 2
121 = l + 51
<u>Subtract 51 on both sides</u>
121 - 51 = l + 51 - 51

6 be cause 8 times 6 equals 48
Pretty sure it would be 5x u less theres more to the problem
05/23727.90=100/x
105x=23727.90x100
105x=2372790
(105x)/105=2372790/105
x=22598
dealers cost is $22,598
<span>the 105% is the 100% price of the car plus the 5% of that tax</span>
2(-9)=-18
Do the total list is -18 yards
