The length of a rectangular room is 8 feet greater than its width. Which of the following equations represents the area (A) of the room?

we are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 130 cookies.

First, we convert 3 ¼ into improper fraction as:

Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:

Solve the value of x by cross-products

Dividing both sides by 64, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 130 cookies is 845/128 cups, which is equal to 6 77/128 cups.

we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.

First, add 2 to both sides of equation

Add 10 to both sides of the equation

Next, we apply the absolute rule:

If u=a, a>0, then u=a or u=-a

In this case a=5, which is greater 0.

The first condition becomes

Solving for x

The second condition becomes

Solving for x

Then, the value of x is -4/3 or 2.

 We are asked to convert kg to pounds using the given relation. Letting x to represent the lb we are looking for.

Nest, we set the proportion with kg in the numerator and lb on the denominator as follows.

We find the value of x by cross-multiplication

The value of x is 110 lb.

 we need to find the portion of pizza shared by two other friends.

We know that a whole pizza represents 1 and one friend eats half of it. So, the remaining amount left to other two friends is

Remaining fraction of the pizza=1-1/2=1/2

Now, the two friends share ½ amongst themselves equally. Then, each friend gets

The two friends each gets 1/4 of the pizza.

 In this problem, we need to compare the number of dimes to quarters.

If we let p be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,

Number of quarters in the bottle = 6p

Number of nickels in the bottle = 2p

Number of dimes in the bottle =5(2p)=10p

Now relating dimes to nickels, we have

Thus, there are 5 times as many dimes as quarters in the box.

the mean of a data set is the total scores divided by the number of tests.

Total test scores =80+68+74+87+96=405

Number of tests =5

Mean test score =405/5=81

The mean test score is 81.

 we use the relation 1 L=1000 mL to convert 3.9 L to mL as follows.

Thus, 3.9 L is 3900 mL.

 To find the minimum length requires, we need to understand what slope in the question represents. The slope represents the ratio between the height to the length. Let x be the minimum length of the ramp. Then,

Now, we find the value of x by cross-products as follows

Thus, the minimum length required to provide access is 60 feet.

we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.

Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows

If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

Cross-multiply to find the value of x.

Converting 189/10 to a mixed fraction is 18 9/10. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 18 9/10 gallons of water.

percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. To get the decimal form of the percent given, e divide the value by 100.

The decimal form of 58.7% is 0.587.
