2 answers:

4 0

1) distribute the 5/4 and subtract 9 from both sides

5/4x-5/2+2x-4-9=0

2)add/subtract common variables

3.25x-15.5=0

3) move the 15.5 to the other side

3.25x=15.5

4) divide both sides by 3.25 and you have x

x=4.77

$\dfrac 54 (x-2) +2x -4 = 9\\\\\implies \dfrac{5x-10}{4} +2x = 9 +4 \\\\\\\implies \dfrac{5x -10 + 8x}4 = 13\\\\\implies 13x -10 = 13 \times 4 =52\\\\\implies 13x = 52 +10 = 62\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{62}{13}$

A washer and dryer cost $869 combined. The washer cost $81 less than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer?

marysya [2.9K]

W+d=869
w=d-81
plug in
(d-81)+d=869
2d-81=869
+81 both sides
2d=950
÷2 both sides
d=475
dryer cost $475

let's check w=475-81
w=394
475+394=869
869=869
the solution is true :)

Algebra 2 test help please

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be l

We know that,

$Perimeter= 8\sqrt{8} \\Width = 4 \sqrt{2} \\As\ Perimeter = 2(l+b)\\\\8\sqrt{8}=2(l+4 \sqrt{2})\\8\sqrt{8}=2l+8 \sqrt{2}\\8\sqrt{8} -8\sqrt{2}=2l\\4(\sqrt{8} -\sqrt{2})=l\\4(2\sqrt{2} -\sqrt{2})=l\\4(\sqrt{2}(2-1))=l\\4(\sqrt{2})=l\\Hence, l=b\\So, l-b= 0$
