Answer:

Option C)        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Number of jeans in inventory = 688

The store manager decides to reduce the the stock by giving a buy one get one free scheme.  That means that every purchase will reduce this inventory by 2 pairs of jeans.

This can be represented with the help of equation:

688 - 2x

where x is the number of jeans purchased.

In the above expression the term 2x is the total number of jeans sold, where x is the number of jeans sold. Due to buy one one free offer the jeans reduced from the inventory are double the jeans sold.

Thus, 2x in the equation means that every purchase will reduce the inventory by 2 pairs of jeans where x is the number of purchases.

What are the dimensions of the rectangle shown below? Remember to use the axes on the coordinate grid to help you.
miskamm [114]
Keep in mind its been a while since i did this type of work lol.....

did you try to draw it out on a grid paper....what will be helpful is if you got the coordinates and put the points down and then if you connect the dots you get your shape now you will count the unis in which the width and length is timed. so like if you had grid and it gave you coordinates and you did all that now you will count how many units is in the width and how many in the length. 
 but your best answer might be 14 units x 4 units
