Answer:

400 sq. ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

We gotta find the length of a side:

First, we divide 80 by 4, because the perimeter of a square is (4 x side):

80 ft. / 4 = 20 ft.

Second, we doing the normal area of a square equation:

$20^{2}$ = 400 square ft.

Which leads to out answer of 400 sq. ft.

I must confess that I was about to pass this question by, but I was captured by the respectful and dignified way in which you asked for help.

A careful reading of the problem gives you two equations in two unknowns, which you can then solve as simultaneous equations. Here's how it looks:

Call 'C' the price of the senior Citizen ticket.
Call 'S' the price of the Student ticket.

On the first night . . . 10 C + 12 S = 208

On the second night . . . 8C + 3 S = 74

Those are your two simultaneous equations. Now the idea is to multiply or divide each side of one equation in such a way that when you add or subtract it from the other equation, one of the variables will become a zero quantity ... you'll be left with an equation in one variable, which you can easily solve. THEN, knowing the value of one variable, you can put it back into one of the original equations,and find the value of the other variable.

This all sounds more complicated than it is. Here's how it goes:
We have . . .

10 C + 12 S = 208 and
8C + 3 S = 74

I'm going to multiply each side of the second equation by 4, and then write it under the first one:

10 C + 12 S = 208
32 C + 12 S = 296

Now, subtract the lower equation from the upper one, and you get . . .

- 22 C + 0 = - 88

Divide each side of this one by -22 and you have C = $4.00 .

THAT's what you need, to blow the whole problem wide open. Knowing
the value of 'C', let's substitute it into the equation for the first night:

10 C + 12 S = 208

10(4) + 12 S = 208

40 + 12 S = 208

Subtract 40 from each side : 12 S = 168

Divide each side by 12 : S = $ 14.00 .

Finally, as we look over our results, and see that Students have to pay $14 to see the show but Seniors can get in for only $4 , we reflect on this ... or at least I do ... and realize that getting old is not necessarily all bad.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

24 meters is the width of the original rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Bobby knows that the perimeter of the original rectangle is 120 meters. He also knows that the perimeter of the reduced rectangle is 30 meters and the reduced rectangle has a length of 9 meters.

Now, to get the width of original rectangle.

The reduced rectangle's perimeter = 30 meters.

The reduced rectangle's length = 9 meters.

Now, we find the width of reduced rectangle by using formula:

Let the width of reduced rectangle be $x.$
