A flower bed has the shape of a rectangle 5 yards long and 4 yards wide. What is its area in square feet?

To find the area, use A= bh (base x height), or A = lw (length x width)

There are 3 feet in 1 yard

3 x 5 = 15
4 x 3 = 12

15 x 12 = 180

The flower bed is 180 ft²

hope this helps

Consider the equation 2(ax+3)=4x−3(4x+8). For what value of a is there no solution to the equation?

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

the value of $a$ such that there is no solution to the equation is $a = -4$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let first simplify the expression presented on statement. The equation has no solution if and only if $a$ is eliminated in the process and an absurd is the result (i.e. $0 = 7$ ).

$2\cdot (a\cdot x + 3) = 4\cdot x -3\cdot (4\cdot x + 8)$

$2\cdot a\cdot x +6 = 4\cdot x -12\cdot x -24$

$2\cdot a \cdot x+6=-8\cdot x-24$

$2\cdot a\cdot x +8\cdot x = -30$

$2\cdot (a+4)\cdot x = -30$

$(a+4)\cdot x = -15$

To obtain an absurd, we need that $a+4 = 0$ . Hence, the value of $a$ such that there is no solution to the equation is:

$a = -4$

Let prove the certainty of the result. We find that an absurd exist: ( $a = -4$ )

$0 = -15$

The owner of a store buys wooden benches for $50 each. She marks up the

Sliva [168]

Answer:

$98.75

Step-by-step explanation:

50×75÷100 = 37.5 + 50 = 87.5

87.5 × 30 ÷ 100 = 26.5

87.5 - 26.5 = 61.25

87.5 + 61.25 = 148.75

148.75 - 50 = 98.75

i hope i am right

Sara ran 10km in 2.5 hours. Katerina ran 7.5 km in 2 hours. Candice ran 9.5 km in 2.25 hours. Who had the fastest average speed?

Arisa [49]

10 km ÷ 2.5 hours = 4 km/h — This is Sara's record

7.5 km ÷ 2 hours = 3.75 km/h — This is Katerina's record

9.5 km ÷ 2.25 hours = 4.2 km/h — This is Candice's record

Therefore, the answer is Candice had the fastest average speed.

Johnathan ran 5 days this week. The most he ran in one day was 3.5 miles. Write an inequality that shows the distance johnathan

Mekhanik [1.2K]

<em><u>An inequality that shows the distance Johnathan could of ran any day this week is:</u></em>

$x\leq 3.5$

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the distance Johnathan can run any day of this week

Given that,

Johnathan ran 5 days this week. The most he ran in one day was 3.5 miles

Therefore,

Number of days ran = 5

The most he ran in 1 day = 3.5 miles

Thus, the maximum distance he ran in a week is given as:

$distance = 5 \times 3.5 = 17.5$

The maximum distance he ran in a week is 17.5 miles

If we let x be the distance he can run any day of this week then, we get a inequality as:

$x\leq 3.5$

If we let y be the total distance he can travel in a week then, we may express it as,

$y\leq 17.5$
