Answer:
Width = 10 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the perimeter of a rectangle of 68 inches, and a length that is 14 inches longer than its width.
We can establish the following values to help us solve for the width of a rectangle:
Perimeter (P) = 68 inches
Length (L) = 14 + W inches
Width (W) = unknown
Solve for the Width (W)P = 2(L + W) ⇒ This is the same as P = 2L + 2W, except that 2 is factored out from the right-hand side.
Divide both sides by 2:
[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{P}{2}\:=\:\frac{2(L\:+\:W)}{2}}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{P}{2}\:=L\:+\:W}[/tex]
Substitute the value of the Perimeter and the length (L) into the formula:
[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{68}{2}\:=14\:+W\:+\:W}[/tex]
Combine like terms on the right-hand side, and simplify the left-hand side of the equation:
[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{34\:=14\:+2W}[/tex]
Subtract 14 from both sides:
34 - 14 = 14 - 14 + 2W
20 = 2W
Divide both sides by 2 to solve for the width (W):
[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{20}{2}\:=\:\frac{2W}{2}}[/tex]
W = 10 inches
Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 10 inches.
Double-check:Verify whether the derived value for the width is correct:
P = 2L + 2W
68 = 2(14 + 10) + 2(10)
68 = 2(34) + 20
68 = 48 + 20
68 = 68 (True statement).
Thus, the length of the rectangle is 34 inches, and the width is 10 inches.

After eating 75% of the chocolates in a box, Dev found 6 chocolates remaining. How many chocolates were there in the box originally?
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
Let total number of the chocolates be x.
25% of x = 6 (because 100 - 75 = 25% of chocolates left).
25/100 x x = 6
x = 600/25
x = 24
Hence, 24 is the total amount of chocolates.

The price of gas on Wednesday was $2.03/gallon. On Friday, the price of gas was $2.26. What is the percent change in the price of gas?
Answer:
Percent change in the price of gas is [tex]9.85\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage change equals the change in value divided by the absolute value of the original value, multiplied by [tex]100[/tex] .
[tex]\text { Percentage Change }=\frac{\Delta V}{\left|V_{1}\right|} \times 100[/tex]
Here
[tex]\Delta V=2.26-2.03\\\\=0.23\$/gallon[/tex]
[tex]V_{1}=2.03\$/gallon[/tex]
The percent change in the price of gas
[tex]=\frac{0.23}{2.03} \times100\\\\=9.85\%[/tex]
Percent change in the price of gas is [tex]9.85\%[/tex]

Answer: 5^2.48 is honestly as close as you can get.
write 321.51 to the nearest whole
Answer:
322.
Hope that helped. x
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 321.51,
So what we need to do is check the number straight after the decimal point and see if it is less than 5 or 5 and above. (5 and above mean increasing the number, less than 5 means decreasing the number.)
Since the number is 5 we change the 1 to a 2. So the answer is 322.
Trey bought a football on sale for 15% off of $45. Evan bought the same football at a different store for 25% off of $54. Who received the better deal? Explain.
a. How much did Trey spend on a football?
b. How much did Evan spend on a football?
c.
Who got the better deal?
Answer:
a. $38.25, b.$40.5, c. Trey
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage can also be represented as a proportion out of 1; for example, 30 percent is .30, and 100 percent will be 1.00.
a. If Trey is paying 15 percent off a price, that means he is still paying 85 percent, and recall what I said earlier, about 85 percent is a .85 proportion. So now we multiply the price by the proportion he is paying .85*45 = $38.25
b. We want to do the same process we did in part a. So we have 1 - .25 =.75 to get the proportion of the original price Evan will be paying. Now we multiply .75*54 = $40.50.
c. Trey got the better deal because he ended up paying less; hence $38.25 is less than that of $40.50

Given this equation in slope-intercept form…
y = 2x + 5
Identify or solve for the following:
Slope
y-intercept
x-intercept
Independent variable
Dependent variable
Domain
Range
We would like to represent a line passing through the point (5,0) with a slope of 2. Please write the equation for this line in slope-intercept form and in point-slope form.
What is the rate of change of the function above?
Answer:
y = m x + b standard form of straight line
y = 2 x + 5
The slope is m and = 2
the y intercept is 5 because when x = o y = 5
if y = 0 then x = -2/5 and would be the x intercept
x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable
I am not familiar with your definitions for domain and range but
both x and y can vary from -∝ to = ∝
#10) Mrs. Sommer states that angle I is 65 degrees. Is she correct? why or why not
Answer: Mrs. Somner is correct.
Step-by-step explanation: In a triangle, the angles add up to 180 degrees. Since we know that Triangle ABC is equal to Triangle RST, we can assume that their angle values are equal as well. Angle A is 41 degrees, and Angle B is 74 degrees. This adds up to 115 degrees. If we subtract 115 from 180, we get 65. Therefore, Mrs. Somner is correct.

C) y = -4x + 1
D) y = -4x - 4
Thank you!
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
rise over run gives you 4/1 which equals 4. and the only 2 intercepts given lead negatively so the line has to be negative which gives you -4 then where x=0 is the x intercept which is positive 4
Answer:
B) y=-4x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(4-0)/(0-1)
m=4/-1
m=-4
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-0=-4(x-1)
y=-4(x-1)
y=-4x+4

To check out a customer, a grocery store cashier needs 2 seconds to scan each item being purchased, as well as 30 seconds to process payment. If it takes 44 seconds to ring up a particular customer, how many items is the customer purchasing?
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the customer has x items. For each item, we add 2 seconds. For 3 items, we need 2 + 2 + 2 = 2*3 seconds. For x items, we need 2 * x seconds. Then, we add the processing payment time of 30 seconds, so for x items, the total amount of time = 30 + 2 * x
Here, the total amount of time is 44, so we have
44 = 30 + 2x
subtract 30 from both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient
14 = 2x
divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
x = 7
