Correct Answer is A
Explanation
To form an equation from the word problem, first break the given statement into smaller statements.
First, we are given the width of the rectangle as x. We are told, the length is two times width. Mathematically, this means
Length=2*width=2*x=2x
Now, the length is 6 less than 2 times width of the rectangle. Thus, the length of rectangle in terms of width becomes:
Length =2x-6
Thus, the length of the rectangle is 2x-6.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation

Here we need to find the actual values of the additions and see the trend the student will use to estimate the given problem. The exact sum is as follows
35+192=227
258+350=608
947+1032=1979
From the above calculations, it is evident that the student rounds up or down the ones place values. So, in the problem we need to approximate 694+7618.
694+7618=8312
We can approximate 8312 based on the provided choices is 8310.

                     Â
The fraction above reduces into
                  Â
Â
In ratio form, girls: boys=13:11
Thus, the ratio of girls to boys in a class of 48 students is 13 to 11.

We are needed to find the amount Jacob will be left with after spending and reinvesting the rest using the given information.
Amount Jacob spends=87% of $100=87/100*100=$87
Amount left to invest=$(100-87)=$13
Jacob is left with $13, which she invests and earns a profit of 75%.
Profit earned on invested amount=75% of $13=75/100*13=$9.75
So, Jacob will have $13+$9.75=$22.75

Let's calculate the number of each color of gumball:
- Red: 20% of 120 → 0.2×120=24
- Orange: 30% of 120 → 0.3×120=36
- Yellow: 5% of 120 → 0.05×120=6
- Green: 10% of 120 → 0.1×120=12
- Blue: The remaining percentage: 100%−(20%+30%+5%+10%) = 100%−65% =35%
- So, 0.35×120=42 blue gumballs.
Now, we find how many more blue gumballs there are than yellow:
42−6=36
