The length of the fence in feet if he uses all 72 feet of material is 33 feet.

<h3>Perimeter of a rectangle</h3>

  • Width of the fence = 3 feet
  • Perimeter = 72 feet
  • Length = x

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

72 = 2(x + 3)

72 = 2x + 6

72 - 6 = 2x

68 = 2x

x = 68/2

x = 33 feet

Therefore, the length of the fence in feet if he uses all 72 feet of material is 33 feet.

What is the answer to 1 2/3÷10+5​
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The answer is 5 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1 2/3 ÷ 10 + 5

5/3 ÷ 10/1 + 5/1

From the rule of BODMAS, we solve for division before subtraction

to change division to multiplication, 10/1 will become 1/10, then will we have

5/3 × 1/10 +  5/1

1/3 ×1/2 + 5/1

1/6 + 5/1

The common multiple of 6 and 1 is 6, so if we solve for the fraction, we will have

1/6 + 30/6 = 31/6

= 5 1/6

A candy store makes a 12-lb mixture of gummy bears, jelly beans, and Runts. The cost of gummy bears is $1.50 per pound, jelly be
qwelly [4]

Answer:

g= 6

j = 2

r= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Gummy bears = $1.50 per pound

Jelly beans = $1.00 per pound

Runt = $1.00 per pound

Total cost of the mixture = $15.00

Let

g = quantity of gummy bears

j = quantity of jelly beans

r = quantity of runts

g + j + r=12 (1)

1.5g + 1.0j + 1.0r = 15 (2)

three times as many gummy bears as jelly beans.

g=3j

Substitute g=3j into 1

g + j + r = 12

3j + j + r =12

4j + r =12 (3)

Substitute g=3j into 2

1.5g + 1.0j + 1.0r = 15

1.5(3j) + 1.0j + 1.0r =15

4.5j + 1.0j + 1.0r = 15

5.5j + 1.0r =15 (4)

4j + r =12 (3)

5.5j + 1.0r =15 (4)

Subtract (3) from (4)

5.5j - 4j = 15-12

1.5j = 3

Divide both sides by 1.5

j = 3/1.5

= 2

j = 2

Substitute j = 2 into (3)

4j + r =12

4(2) + r =12

8 + r = 12

r= 12-8

r= 4

Substitute j=2 and r= 4 into (1)

g + j + r=12

g + 2 + 4 = 12

g + 6 = 12

g = 12-6

=6

g=6

g= 6

j = 2

r= 4
