A thief steals a number of rare plants from a nursery. On the way out, the thief meets three security guards, one after anothe

DedPeter [7]

The thief originally stole 64 plants.

<h3>What is arithmetic?</h3>

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.

Here,
Let the number of plants originally stolen by the thief be x.
On the way out, the thief meets three security guards, one after another. To each security guard, the thief is forced to give one-half of the plants that he still had, plus 2 more.

Here,
For gourd 1 the planet is given = 1/2 x
For gourd 2 the planet is given = 1/2 * 1/2 x = 1/4 x
For gourd 3 the planet is given = 1/2*1/4 x = 1/8 x
Total plant given to the gourds = 1/2x +1/4x +1/8x + 2 = 7/x/8x +2
Finally, the thief leaves the nursery with 10 plants
x - 7x/8 + 2 = 10
x/8 = 8
x = 64

Thus, the thief stole 64 plants.

56 is 75% of what number? Show your work.

zhannawk [14.2K]

75% × x = 56 or, 75/100 × x = 56
Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 75,
we have x = 56 × 75/100
x = 74.667

Here are the vertices of rectangle FROG: (-2,5),(-2,1),(6,5),(6,1). Find the perimeter of this rectangle. If you get stuck, try

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Part 1) The perimeter of rectangle is equal to 24 units

Part 2) The area of rectangle is equal to 32 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the perimeter of rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

$P=2(L+W)$

where

L is the length of rectangle

W is the width of rectangle

we have

$F(-2,5),R(-2,1),O(6,1),G(6,5)$

Plot the figure to better understand the problem

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

Remember that in a rectangle opposite sides are congruent and the measure of each interior angle is equal to 90 degrees

so

$FG=RO=L\\RF=OG=W$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance FG

$F(-2,5),G(6,5)$

substitute the values

$d=\sqrt{(5-5)^{2}+(6+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(8)^{2}}$

$FG=8\ units$

step 2

Find the distance RF

$R(-2,1),F(-2,5)$

substitute the values

$d=\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(-2+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$RF=4\ units$

step 3

Find the perimeter

$P=2(L+W)$

we have

$FG=RO=L=8\ units\\RF=OG=W=4\ units$

substitute

$P=2(8+4)=24\ units$

Part 2) Find the area of rectangle FROG

we know that

The area of rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$FG=RO=L=8\ units\\RF=OG=W=4\ units$

substitute

$A=(8)(4)=32\ units^2$
