If x represents the width of a rectangle and length is six less than two times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?
2x-6
6-2x
6x-2
3x-4
Correct Answer : A
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.

In this problem, we need to find the amount of gratuity the couple will leave. The gratuity is 16% of the total bill. Before solving the problem, the following are terms and their meaning in percent problems:
- Is means equals
- Of means multiply
- What means unknown (variable)
If we let x be the amount of gratuity, then translating the given problem into a mathematical equation becomes:
So, the value of x=9.376 and to the nearest cent, x=9.38
There, a couple will leave a gratuity of $9.38.

Explanation
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
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
We follow the order operations to solve for the unknown value of x.
3(2x+5)=11x+5
Open the bracket on the LHS by multiplying each term by 3
(3*2x)+(3*5)=11x+5
6x+15=11x+5
Subtract 15 from both sides
6x+15-15=11x+5-15
6x=11x-10
Subtract 11x on both sides
6x-11x=11x-11x-10
-5x=-10
Divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5=-10/-5
x= 2
Thus, the value of unknown value of x is 2.

Explanation
The net income is the salary of the teacher gets after deducting total taxes.
Weekly net income=weekly gross income-total tax
Total tax=federal income tax+state income tax+Social Security tax
Total tax=$(72.00+35.00+65.00)
Total tax=$172.00
Weekly net income=$(730.00-172.00)=$558.00
The net income the teacher gets in 4 weeks is what she gets in one week multiplied by 4
The teacher will earn a net income of $2,232.00 in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted.
