------------------------------------------------------
Define x :
------------------------------------------------------
Let the width be x.

------------------------------------------------------
Find Area of the walkway :
------------------------------------------------------
Area = 30x + 30x + 20x + 20x + 4x²       
Area = 100x + 4x²

------------------------------------------------------
Find cost of the walkway in term of x:
------------------------------------------------------
1m² = $10
100x + 4x² = 10(4x² + 100x)
(100x + 4x²)m = $(40x² + 1000x)

------------------------------------------------------
Find Width of the walkway :
------------------------------------------------------
The budget is $6000

40x² + 1000x = 6000
40x² + 1000x - 6000 = 0
x² + 25x -150 = 0              //Divide by 40 through
(x - 5)(x + 30) = 0             //Factorise
x = 5 or x = -30 (Rejected, width cannot be negative)

------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The width can be 5m wide.

What is the greatest value 20g of flour 3 for 3.50 or 40g of flour for 2 for 9£ which is better for money
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

It is better to buy 20 g of flour 3 for 3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that 20g of 3 for 3.50

It means 3 packets of 20 g is 3*20 =60

So, 60g  is for 3.50

So, 1 g =\frac{3.5}{60}=0.05833 per gram.

Now, let's find unit rate for 40 g of 2 for 9.

2 packets of 40 gram = 2* 40 =80 grams

So, 80 grams costs 9

So, 1 gram =\frac{9}{80} =0.1125

So, it is better to buy 20 g of flour 3 for 3.50

Find the Volume of this Octagonal Pyramid.<br> "B" represents the Area of the octagon base.
Dominik [7]

Answer:

7.06 x 10^(-7) ft 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the formula to calculate the volume of an octagonal Pyraamid as following:

<em>+) Volume of octagonal pyramid = 1/3 * Area of the base * Height</em>

As given, the base of the pyramid is an octagon with area equal to 15mm2

=> Area of the base = 15 mm2

The height of the pyramid is the length of the line segment which is perpendicular to the base - which is the red line.

=> Height = 4mm

So we have:

<em>Volume of octagonal pyramid = 1/3 * Area of the base * Height</em>

<em>= 1/3 * 15 * 4 = 20 mm3</em>

<em />

As: 1 mm3 = 3.53 x 10^(-8) ft 3

=> 20 mm3 = 7.06x10^(-7) ft 3

So the volume of the pyramid is :  7.06 x 10^(-7) ft 3
