Total length of rope = 25 feet

Let us say one part of the rope is x, then the other part will be 25-x.

We are given that one section of the rope is four times as long as the other.

So let us make an equation using this information,

x=4(25-x)

x=100-4x

5x=100

x=20

So one part is 20 feet and the second part is 25-20= 5 feet.

Answer: The shorter part of the rope is 5 feet long.

Olin [163]

To solve this problem:

The formula would be: New Value – Old Value)/Old Value] x 100 or in the form of variable it would be: [(B-A)/A] x 100 = Answer.

 

So plugging in the information given in our problem it would be:

0 – 16 / 16 x 100 = percent of change

0/16 x 100 = 0%

 

The answer is 0%

Check the picture below.

now, to get how much is the area of the tiled section, we simply get the area of the whole pool, 53x26, which includes the tiles, and then subtract the area without the tile, the rectangle in the middle, and what's leftover, is the area of the tiled area.

\bf 53-4\frac{1}{2}-4\frac{1}{2}\implies 53-9\implies \boxed{42}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;26-4\frac{1}{2}-4\frac{1}{2}\implies 26-9\implies \boxed{17}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{so the area of the rectangle in the middle is}\implies 42\cdot 17\implies 714&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{and the area of the whole pool is}\implies 53\cdot 26\implies 1378

\bf \stackrel{\textit{area of the whole pool}}{1378}~~-~~\stackrel{\textit{area of the middle rectangle}}{714}\implies \stackrel{\textit{area of the tiles}}{664}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{we know that is }\$5\frac{1}{2}\textit{ for a foot of tile, then}\stackrel{\textit{price of the tiles}}{664\cdot 5\frac{1}{2}}\implies 3652
