Answer:

The answer to your question is Area = 37500 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

lawn 1 lawn 2

width = 550 ft width = 250 ft

Area = 181500 ft² Area = ?

Process

1.- Find the length of lawn 1

Area = length x width

-solve for length

length = Area/width

-Substitution

length = 181 500 ft²/ 550

-result

length = 330 ft

2.- Find the length of lawn 1 using ratios and proportions

550 : 330 :: 250 : x

x = (250 x 330) / 550

x = 150 ft

3.- Find the area of lawn 2

-Substitution

Area = 250 x 150

-Result

Area = 37500 ft²

Alg I Trad Bench 1 Laurel MS 2020-2021 Section 1 8 of 308 of 30 Items Item 8 A taxi service charges a flat rate for the first 3

spayn [35]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

First 3 miles = flat rate

Subsequent miles = additional rate per mile x

Equation which represents the scenario :

10 + 2.50(x - 3)

If the amount charged by the taxi service for a certain trip is

10 + 2.50(x - 3)

Then. ;

10 = the flat rate charged for the first 3 seconds

2.50 = additional mile charge

x = total trip distance

Hence, (x - 3) = (total trip distance - first 3 miles) = additional miles traveled

Segment CD has endpoints (-4, 3) and (8, -1). Find the coordinates of the point that divides the line segment directed from C to

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$A(0.8,\ 1.4)\ \text{or }\ A\left(\dfrac{4}{5},\dfrac{7}{5}\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

If point $A(x,y)$ divides the segment with endpoints $C(x_1,y_1)$ and $D(x_2,y_2)$ in the ratio $m:n,$

then

$x=\dfrac{nx_1+mx_2}{m+n}\\ \\y=\dfrac{ny_1+my_2}{m+n}$

In your case,

$C(-4,3)\\ \\D(8,-1)\\ \\m:n=2:3$

then

$x=\dfrac{3\cdot (-4)+2\cdot 8}{2+3}=\dfrac{-12+16}{5}=\dfrac{4}{5}=0.8\\ \\y=\dfrac{3\cdot 3+2\cdot (-1)}{2+3}=\dfrac{9-2}{5}=\dfrac{7}{5}=1.4$

Thus,

$A(0.8,\ 1.4)\ \text{or }\ A\left(\dfrac{4}{5},\dfrac{7}{5}\right)$

The point (0, –4) is located

mixer [17]

I'm going to assume you're asking where the point is located on a coordinate plane.

We have x = 0 and y = -4.

So, we start at (0, 0) and move down 4 units.

Best of Luck!
