Answer:
The length side of the original square banner was 9 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x-----> the length side of the original square banner
we know that
The new area of the banner is equal to
Solve for x
Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
The solution is x=9 ft
see the attached figure
Since the area of the poster doesn't change by putting it in a frame, we presume the question is asking what the area of the framed poster is.
The length of the poster in its frame is ...
(frame width on one side) + (poster length) + (frame width on the other side)
2 in + 32 in + 2 in = 36 in
Likewise, the width of the poster in its frame is ...
2 in + 24 in + 2 in = 28 in
The area of a rectangle 36 in by 28 in is the product of these dimensions:
Area = (36 in)×(28 in) = (36×28) in² = 1008 in²
You have to start by using the distributive property. So you take the number next to the parentheses which is “8” and you multiply it with “2x”. This gives you “16x”. Then you multiply “8” with “3” and that gives you “24”. You now have the equation “16x + 24 = 48”.
The next step is to subtract “24” with “48”. This leaves you with “24”. Then you now have “16x = 24” as your new equation. The last step is to divide “16x” with “16”, this cancels it out with itself. Then you divide “24” with “16” and you get 1.5. So “X” equals 1.5 or you can convert it into a fraction witch gives you “3/4”.
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
If 50% of students are boys that means there are 30 boys and 30 girls. Then if 30% of boys are 10 and 60% of girls are 18. You add 18+10 and that gives you 28.
