The area of a square shaped yard is 201.5 ft2. Which measurement is closest to the side length of this yard in feet?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

a = 14.19 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The area of a square shaped yard is 201.5 ft²

We need to find the side length of this yard in feet.

The area of a square shaped object is given by :

A = a², a is the side length of the object

Put A = 201.5 ft² in above formula,

201.5=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{201.5 } \\\\a=14.19\ \text{feet}

So, the side of the square yard is 14.19 feet.

Solve 2x + 5y = –13. 3x – 4y = –8
disa [49]
If you would like to solve 2x + 5y = - 13 and 3x - 4y = -8, you can do this using the following steps:

<span>2x + 5y = -13  /*4
3x - 4y = -8     /*5
</span>_________________
8x + 20y = -52
15x - 20y = -40
_________________
8x + 15x + 20y - 20y = -52 - 40
23x = -92    /23
x = -92 / 23
x = -4

<span>2x + 5y = -13
</span>2 * (-4) + 5y = -13
-8 + 5y = -13
5y = -13 + 8
5y = -5
y = -1

(x, y) = (-4, -1)

The correct result would be D.) <span>(-4, -1).</span>

Aimi is making Valentine’s Day cards for everyone in her class. She plans to use a whole sheet of paper for each of her 6 closes
DaniilM [7]
34 - 6 = 28
28 x 8 = 224

After making the 6 whole sheet of paper cards for her closest friends Aimi will have 28 pieces of paper left.

Since she wants to use 1/8 of a sheet per valentine (think of it as one piece of paper can make 8 valentines) you can do 28 pieces of paper multiplied by 8 which gives you 224 valentines.

distribute the 8 to the 5 and x. then distribute 11 to 9 and x.

(40+8x)=(99+11x)

-11x -11x

-3x+40=99

-40 -40

-3x= 59

divide three on both sides

x=59/-3
