Answer:
C. 3.4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the amount of increase be 'x' feet.
As, the length and width of the garden are 20 ft and 12 ft respectively.
It is given that the area of the new garden is 360 ft²
Since, the length and width are increased by 'x'.
The new length and width are (x+20) ft and (x+12) ft respectively.
So, we get,
New area, 
= length × breadth = (x+20) × (x+12)
i.e. 360 = 
i.e. 
i.e. (x+35.4)(x-3.4)=0
i.e. x = -35.4 and x= 3.4
Since, the value of x cannot be negative.
Thus, x = 3.4 feet.
We know that the side lengths of the square base are: x * x. The volume is 12, so for now, let's say that y is the other side length. Then, x * x * y = 12. We can solve for y: y = 12/x^2. Now, we find the surface area of the 5 sides.
Four of the sides have the same area: x * (12/x^2) = 12/x, so we multiply this by 4: 48/x.
The last side is the base: x * x = x^2.
We add 48/x to x^2:
x^2 + 48/x
So, the answer is the fourth choice, (d).
Answer:
72 Square Feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a rat of change (ROC) you take the two numbers and the two prices and subtract them to make a ratio<u>:</u>
<u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>6</u><u>-</u><u>3</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u> = <u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>3</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u>
$2.56-$2.44 = $2.12
The reduce to the lowest number (the 3 to a 1)
<u>_</u><u>_</u><u>3</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u> = <u>_</u><u>_</u><u>_</u><u>1</u><u>_</u><u>_</u>
$2.12 $0.71
The ROC is $0.71
