Mike wants to fence in part of his backyard. He wants the length of the fenced-in area to be at least 20 feet long, l ≥ 20. He h
zhuklara [117]

I added a screenshot of the complete question along with the given choices.

<em><u>Answers:</u></em>

w = 10 ft and l = 50 ft ................> second option

w = 20 ft and l = 60 ft ...............> third option

w = 50 ft and l = 40 ft ...............> fifth option

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

<u>We are given that:</u>

length should be at least 20 ...........> length ≥ 20

equation for perimeter is : 2l + 2w ≤ 200

<u>We will check each option as follows:</u>

<u>Option 1:</u>

w = 50 ft and l = 10 ft

This option is incorrect as the proposed length is less than 20.

<u>Option 2:</u>

w = 10 ft and l = 50 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(50) + 2(10) = 100 + 20 = 120 ≤ 200

The second condition is also satisfied.

This option is correct

<u>Option 3:</u>

w = 20 ft and l = 60 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(60) + 2(20) = 120 + 40 = 160 ≤ 200

The second condition is also satisfied.

This option is correct

<u>Option 4:</u>

w = 90 ft and l = 30 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(30) + 2(90) = 60 + 180 = 240 > 200

The second condition is not satisfied.

This option is incorrect

<u>Option 5:</u>

w = 50 ft and l = 40 ft

Since the length is greater than 20, the first condition is satisfied.

Now, we check the second condition:

2l + 2w = 2(50) + 2(40) = 100 + 80 = 180 ≤ 200

The second condition is also satisfied.

This option is correct

Hope this helps :)

A machine covers 5/8 square foot in 1/4 hour. what is the unit rate?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

we know that

<u>Unit Rate</u> is the ratio of two measurements in which the second term is one

so

to find the unit rate divide (5/8) by (1/4)

Unit\ rate=\frac{(5/8)}{(1/4)}= \frac{5}{8}*4= \frac{2.5}{1} =2.5 \frac{ft^{2}}{hour}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The unit rate is 2.5 \frac{ft^{2}}{hour}

Captain Sparrow and his pirate crew dug up several gold coins. They are dividing the coins amongst themselves so that each perso
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: 150 coins

Step-by-step explanation: let the number of captain Sparrow and the crew = c

The number of gold = g

This mean each person will get g/c

If there were four fewer pirates, then each person would get 10 more coins means

g/(c - 4) = g/ c+ 10

cg = (c-4)(g+10c) ....... (1)

However, if there were 50 fewer coins, then each person would get 5 fewer coins.

(g - 50)/c = g/c - 5

g - 50 = g - 5c

5c = 50

c = 10

Substitute c in equation 1

cg = (c-4)(g+10c) ....... (1)

10g = (10 - 4)(g + 10×10)

10g = 6× (g + 100)

10g = 6g + 600

4g = 600

g = 150 gold coin.

Therefore they dig up 150 gold coin

The governor of state A earns 50, 440 more than the governor of state B. If the total of their salaries is $283,910, can you fin
WITCHER [35]
Use what we know to make equations in order to solve for each governor's salary.
A=governor of state A
B=governor of state B
A+b=283,910. (Their salaries combined)
A=B+50,440 (A earns 50,440 more than B)
Sub A into the original formula to solve for B
B+50,440+b=283,910
2B=283,910-50,440
2B=233,470
B=116,730
Sub B into the formula that's equal to A
A=B+50,440
A=116,735+50,440
A=167,175
I hope this helps!
