Answer: The price for the computer = $1152
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first boy = F
Let the second boy = S
Let the price of computer = C
The second boy had 5/ 6 of the money the first had. I.e
S = 5/6 F
Then F = 6/5S ......(1)
The first boy had 7 /8 of the price of the computer. That is
F = 7/8C ....... (2)
Substitute F in (1) into (2)
6/5S = 7/8C
S = 5/6 × 7/8C
S = 35/48C ......(3)
Together they had $696.00 more than they need to pay. That is
F + S = C + 696 ........ (4)
Substitute equation 2 and 3 into 4
7/8C + 35/48C = C + 696
0.875C + 0.729C = C + 696
0.604C = 696
C = 696/0.604
C = 1152 dollars
Therefore, the price for the computer = $1152

Answer: Perimeter- 88m Area- 207sqm
Step-by-step explanation: To find the perimeter, you have to sort of split the shape into simple boxes. To find the line at the bottom, you have to add 18+11 because you can see that they match the line in the bottom. 18+11=29. You then have to find the P of the left. With the same method, you do 6+9, which equals 15. You add all of the sides together to get 88m. To find Area, you split the boxes into 2 smaller boxes. you then do 18x6 to get 108 for the top box. And 11x9 which equals 99. You add them together to get the area, 207! Hope that makes sense!!!
The length of the pool is 8 meters. The width of the pool is 3 meters.
8(x-3)=8x-24
8x-24=8x-24
8x=8x
x=x
Since x just has to equal itself and not a specific number, there are C, infinitely many solutions to this equation.
