Which expression represents the number of feet that are in x yards?
The conversion fact is 3 feet = 1 yard.So
1 yard = 3 feet
2 yards = 2(3 feet)
3 yards = 3( 3 feet)
Thus, x yards would equal 3x feet....
Answer: C. 3x
Given:
Alexis has a rectangular backyard that is 50 yards by 55 yards.
She wants to build a fence that stretches diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner.
To find:
The length of the fencing she needs.
Solution:
We have,
Length = 50 yards
Width = 55 yards
We know that, the diagonal of a rectangle is
On further simplification, we get
Therefore, the length of the required fencing is 74.3 yards.
Answer:
b. Subtracting the base period amount from the analysis period amount, dividing the result by the base period amount, then multiplying that amount by 100%
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage change can be computed from ...
((new amount) -(old amount))/(old amount) × 100%
This best matches the description of choice B.
_____
<em>Comment on the answer</em>
The formula offered in the question will show the "percent change" from 100 to 103 as 3. It is not 3; rather, it is 3%. The final multiplication must be by 100% in order to arrive at the proper number.
Well, since a is Susan’s current age, we would add three to a to get her age in three years
So our expression would be:
a + 3
