The perimeter of a rectangle is 64 feet. The length of the rectangle is 3 times the width of the rectangle. If w represents the width of the rectangle, the equation that represents the perimeter is 2 (3 w) + 2 w = 64. Which shows the first step that should be taken to verify that the width of the rectangle is 8?
2 (8) + 2 (8) = 64
2 (3 + 8) + (2 + 8) = 64
2 (3 (8)) + 2 (8) = 64
2 (3 + 8) + 2 (8) = 64

Data from 2005 for various age groups show that for each $100 increase in the median weekly income for whites, the median weekly income of blacks increases by $105. also, for workers of ages 25 to 54 the median weekly income for whites was $676 and for blacks was $527. (a) let w represent the median weekly income for whites and b the median weekly income for blacks, and write the equation of the line that gives b as a linear function of w. b = (b) when the median weekly income for whites is $760, what does the equation in (a) predict for the median weekly income for blacks?
