Stefani is making a square quilt with a side length of x + 2 feet. If the quilt will have an area of 36 feet, what is the value of x?

The value of x is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we can calculate the area of the quilt by having the product of the side of the quilt by itself

Mathematically, the area of the quilt = L^2

This is (x + 2) * (x + 2)

This product is equal to 36 feet square

Thus;

(x + 2)^2 = 36

(x + 2)^2 = 6^2

Since the powers are equal, we equate the bases

x + 2 = 6

x = 6-2

x = 4

The percent markup is, 60.89 % .

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of shoes cost $ 22.99 to make, the local store sells them for $ 36.99.

So, the increased value for each pair of shoes,

= $ (36.99 - 22.99)

=$ 14

So, the percent markup is,

%

60.89 %
