The answer is : X=-7/3-2/3y
Let width of the floor be x feet, them area is
x(x+2) = 168
x^2 + 2x - 168 = 0
(x - 12)(x + 14) - 0
so x = 12
the floor is 12 ft by 10 ft
the width of the rug should be 10 - 2(2) = 6 feet
13/52= 1/4 or .25
If you have a scientific calculator it really helps with simplifying numbers to the lowest term.
Answer:
20 questions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of questions on the quiz.
85
% means 85 out of 100 (or 85/
100 )
85/
100
= 3/x
--->100-85=15
--->15/3=5
--->100/5=20
Meaning each question was worth 5% and there were 20 questions.
