Call the length a, the width b

Perimeter = (a+b) x 2

And since we have (a+b) x 2 = 43.6, a + b = 43.6 : 2 = 21.8

a + b = 21.8
a - b = 7

-> a + b + (a - b) = 28.8
2a = 28.8
a = 14.4
b = 7.4

So, the area of the rectangle is 14.4 x 7.4 = 106.56

<em>Independent variables are variables of a quantity that are not affected by any conditions. </em>

<em>Dependent variables are variables  of a quantity that change if conditions relative to that variable changes.</em>

For example, we generally we take x as independent variable by x variable and dependent variable by y variable.

To find the rate of change we get two values of independent variable (x's) and two values of dependent variables (y's) to get two coordinates in form of

(x,1,y1) and (x2,y2).

<h3>And we can find the rate of change by applying slope formula</h3>

m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.

John bought 3 pencils for $0.75 each and a notebook for $4.25. If the tax rate is 5%, what is the total amount of John's purchas
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

$6.83

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate the before-tax total amount:

$0.75 + $0.75 + $0.75 + $4.25, or

3($0.75) + $4.25 = $2.25 + $4.25 = $6.50    (total before tax)

The before-tax total PLUS the 5% tax comes to:

$6.50 + 0.05($6.50) = $6.50 + $0.33  =  $6.83

Write an equation and solve for x.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles opposite to equal sides are equal .

30 + 30 + x = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}

       60 + x = 180

               x = 180 - 60

               x = 120
