What this question is asking, without all the wording, is what is 75% of 1400. You can easily find this by multiplying 1400 by 0.75. This will be your sales tax.
Sales Tax: $1050
Answer:
1.5m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the pathway across all its side be x. This means we are adding a length of 2x to both the length and breadth to 12+2x and 16+2x respectively.
The new area thus becomes:
(12+2x)(16+2x) = 285
24x + 32x + 192 + 4x^2 = 285
4x^2 + 56x + 192 = 285
4x^2 + 56x + 192 - 285 =0
4x^2 + 56x -93 = 0
4x^2 + 62x - 6x - 93 = 0
2x( 2x + 31) - 3(2x + 31) = 0
(2x - 3)(2x + 31) = 0
This means x = 3/2 or -31/2
Since length cannot be negative , we choose the first and neglect the second meaning our answer is 3/2 which is 1.5 meters
It might be k, since 4-4 is 0 and 0 has no absolute value.
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
let the unknown be y (x is used as times(multiplication) )
(y-17)x-6=-138
add /-6 to both sides
y-17x-6/-6=-138/-6
y-17=23
make y independent/add 17 to both sides
y-17+17=23+17
y=40
or in an easier way
-138/-6 =23
23+17=40
simply reversing the question to get the answer
