we know that
A half-acre is equal to----------> 
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
--------> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
![2,023.43=[5y]*y](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%2C023.43%3D%5B5y%5D%2Ay)
<u>Find the value of x</u>
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the dimensions of the building lot are 100.55 m* 20.11 m
So we need to find a number that has the same ratio to 64 as 3 has to four. We do this by diving 64 into 4:(this is 16): so the two ratios are different by 16. To find the remaining number we multiply 3 by 16: this is 48. So 48 has the same ratio to 64 as 3 has to 4.
And 48 is the answer!
Answer:
The total cost of the lunch including the tip is $15.21.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total cost of the lunch including the tip, first, you need to calculate 17% of the price of the lunch as the statement indicates that that is the tip Joseph leaves the waiter:
$13*17%=$2.21
Now, you need to add that amount to the price of the lunch:
$13+$2.21=$15.21
According to this, the answer is that the total cost of the lunch including the tip is $15.21.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area A = 15square cm
Length L = x
Width w = x - 2
Area = L × w
15 = x(x - 2)
15 = x^2 -2x
x^2 -2x - 15 = 0
Solving by factorization
x^2 - 5x + 3x - 15 = 0
(x^2 -5x) + (3x -15) = 0
x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5) = 0
(x + 3)(x - 5) = 0
(x + 3) = 0 or (x - 5) = 0
x = -3 or 5
Since x can't be negative therefore x is 5cm
Length = 5cm
Width = 5-2 = 3cm
