Challenge Yossi used to have a square garage with 246 ft of floor space. recently built an addition to it. The garage is still a

​ square, but now it has​ 50% more floor space. What was the length of one side of the garage​ originally? What is the length of one side of the garage​ now? What was the percent increase in the length of one​ side?

Considering the perimeter of a square, it is found that:

  • The length of one side of the garage​ originally was of 61.5 ft.
  • The length of one side of the garage​ now is of 92.25 ft.
  • The percent increase in the length of one​ side was of 50%.

<h3>What is the perimeter of a square?</h3>

The perimeter of a square of side length s is given by four times the length, that is:

P = 4s.

Before the change, the perimeter was of 246 ft, hence:

4s = 246

s = 246/4

s = 61.5.

The length of one side of the garage​ originally was of 61.5 ft.

After that, the perimeter increased by 50%, hence:

P = 246 x 1.5 = 369.

4s = 369

s = 369/4

s = 92.25.

The length of one side of the garage​ now is of 92.25 ft.

The percent increase is the increase divided by the initial value, hence:

(92.25 - 61.5)/61.5 = 50%.

The percent increase in the length of one​ side was of 50%.

The coffee cup can hold 7/9 of a pint of liquid. If Emily pours 2/3 of a pint of coffee into a cup, how much more milk can she a
Orlov [11]

1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to subtract simple fractions to find the amount of milk that can be added to a cup of coffee

Given

Total Capacity of a cup = 7/9 pints

Coffee to be added in a cup = 2/3 pints

So in order to find the amount of milk that can be added we have to subtract the amount of coffee from the total capacity of cup.

So,

Hence,

1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer

If f(1) = 10 and f(n) = f(n = 1) – 4 then find the value of f(5).
svetoff [14.1K]

Given:

f(1)=10 and f(n)=f(n-1)-4.

To find:

The value of f(5).

Solution:

We have,

f(n)=f(n-1)-4

For n=2,

f(2)=f(2-1)-4

f(2)=f(1)-4

f(2)=10-4

f(2)=6

For n=3,

f(3)=f(3-1)-4

f(3)=f(2)-4

f(3)=6-4

f(3)=2

For n=4,

f(4)=f(4-1)-4

f(4)=f(3)-4

f(4)=2-4

f(4)=-2

For n=5,

f(5)=f(5-1)-4

f(5)=f(4)-4

f(5)=-2-4

f(5)=-6

Therefore, the value of f(5) is -6.
