A half-acre building lot is five times as long as it is wide. What are its dimensions?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gnoma [55]3 years ago
6 0

we know that

A half-acre is equal to----------> 2,023.43\ m^{2}

Let

x---------> the length side of the building lot

y--------> the width side of the building lot

A------> Area of the building lot

x=5y-------> equation 1

A=2,023.43\ m^{2}

A=x*y

2,023.43=x*y --------> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2

2,023.43=[5y]*y

5y^{2}= 2,023.43\\y^{2}= 404.686\\y= 20.11\ m

<u>Find the value of x</u>

x=5y---> x=5*20.11--> x=100.55 m

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the dimensions of the building lot are 100.55 m* 20.11 m

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The mean for the second week is $2 less than the first and in percentage it is 22% less.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is given by the sum of all individual values divided by the number of values. For the first week the sum is:

sum1 = 6.5 + 8 + 7.25 + 13.5 + 9.75

sum1 = 45

Since she spent 10 less in the second week the sum is:

sum2 = sum1 - 10 = 45 - 10 = 35

The mean for each week is:

mean1 = sum1/5 = 45/5 = 9

mean2 = sum2/5 = 35/5 = 7

difference = mean1 - mean2 = 9-7 = 2

difference(%) = [2/9]*100 = 0.22*100 = 22%

The mean for the second week is $2 less than the first and in percentage it is 22% less.
