perimeter = 2L+2w
from the problem L = 1/5w-2
so perimeter = 2(1/5w-2) +2w
= 2/5w-4 +2w
=12/5w-4
without seeing your choices it should be similar to this
Yes, that is true, you have to simplify -42/-45 to be able to see if they are equivalant.
Here is the solution of the given problem above.
Given: Weight of single calf = weight of mother + 3.8%
Weight of mother = 3.75 tons or 7,500 pounds
? = weight of the calf
First, we need to find the 3.8% of 7,500 pounds. The result is 285 pounds.
So to get the weight of the calf, let's add 7,500 pounds to 285 pounds and the result is 7,785 pounds. So the weight of the calf is 7,785 pounds. Hope this helps.
