A rectangular garden has a perimeter of 172 feet. The length of the garden is 24 feet more than the width. What are the dimensio

ns of the garden? (Recall the formula P = 2L + 2W.)
a.62 ft by 86 ft
c.55 ft by 79 ft
b.31 ft by 55 ft
d.74 ft by 98 ft

Given width is 24 less than length.
W=L-24
Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(L-24+L)=4L-48 
But we're also given perimeter = 172'
Therefore 4L-48=172
solve for L
4L=172+48=220
L=55'
W=55-24 =  31'
Check: Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(31+55)=2*86=172'  good!

Answer: The dimensions of the garden are 31' * 55'

So you would do,
18 gallons of water divided by 0.5 gallons of water 
if you did that correctly you should have gotten... 36 jugs

sesenic [268]

Answer:

$195.00

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter is 54 feet

area is 152  ft^{2}

54' * $1.50 = $81.00

152/8 = 19 bags of mulch needed

19*$6.00= $114.00

$195.00    you get away from the store for under 200 :P

P.S. since you said you'll do anything,  send me $1,000,000.00 dollars :D

Answer:

9. a = -7

10. x = 1

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

a + 6a - 14 = 3a + 6a

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                    7a - 14 = 9a
  2. Subtract 7a on both sides:          -14 = 2a
  3. Divide 2 on both sides:               -7 = a
  4. Rewrite:                                         a = -7

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in a into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>a</em>:                   -7 + 6(-7) - 14 = 3(-7) + 6(-7)
  2. Multiply:                              -7 - 42 - 14 = -21 - 42
  3. Subtract:                             -49 - 14 = -63
  4. Subtract:                             -63 = -63

Here we see that -63 is equal to -63.

∴ a = -7 is a solution of the equation.

<u>Step 4: Define equation</u>

-12 - 4x = 8x + 4(1 - 7x)

<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 4:                              -12 - 4x = 8x + 4 - 28x
  2. Combine like terms:                 -12 - 4x = -20x + 4
  3. Add 20x on both sides:            -12 + 16x = 4
  4. Add 12 on both sides:               16x = 16
  5. Divide 16 on both sides:            x = 1

<u>Step 6: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    -12 - 4(1) = 8(1) + 4(1 - 7(1))
  2. Multiply:                               -12 - 4 = 8 + 4(1 - 7)
  3. Subtract:                              -16 = 8 + 4(-6)
  4. Multiply:                               -16 = 8 - 24
  5. Subtract:                              -16 = -16

Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.

∴ x = 1 is a solution of the equation.
