Answer:

The area of the new office = 968 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A woman is looking for a bigger square office. She finds an office twice the area of her current office.

Let "x" be the side of length of the current office. Which is in shape of square.

A square has four sides and all the sides are in equal measure.

Perimeter of the current office = 4x

Given: Perimeter = 88 feet

Now let's find the side of the current office.

88  = 4x

Divided both sides, we get

4x/4 = 88/4

x = 22 feet.

So the side of the current office is 22 feet.

Now let's find the area of the current office = side *side

= 22*22

The area of the current office = 484 square feet.

We need to find the area of the new office, which is twice the area of the current office."

The area (square feet) of the new office = 2*484 = 968 square feet.

Geoff wants to make a 200 ml of 6% alcohol solution mixing a quantity of a 3% alcohol solution with a 8% alcohol solution. What
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Volume of 3% alcohol = 80 ml

Volume of 8% alcohol = 120 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Final volume of 6% alcohol solution = 200 ml

Let the volume of 3% alcohol volume = a ml

Therefore, volume of 8% alcohol = (200 - a) ml

Equation for the given situation will be,

3a + 8(200 - a) = 6×200

3a + 1600 - 8a = 1200

1600 - 5a = 1200

5a = 400

a = 80 ml

Therefore, volume of 3% alcohol to be used = 80 ml

And volume of 8% alcohol to be used = (200 - 80) = 120 ml

Suppose you can work at most a total of 25 hours per week. Baby-sitting, x, pays $6 per hour and working at the grocery store, y
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

<u><em>y=7  </em></u><u>number of hours at grocery store</u>

<u><em>x=18 </em></u><u>number of hours at baby- sitting</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information provided.

x is number of hours at baby- sitting

y is number of hours at grocery store

total number of hours worked

<em>1) </em><em>x+y =25</em>

total earn in a week

<em>2) </em><em>x*$6 + y* $9 = $171</em>

<em />

<em>from equation 1</em>

x+y=25

x= 25-y

<em>we place the above derived equation in equation 2 </em>

x*$6 + y* $9 = $171

(25-y)*$6 + y* $9 = $171

(25*6) -6y +9y =171

150+3y=171

3y=171-150

3y=21

<u><em>y=7  </em></u><u>number of hours at grocery store</u>

x= 25-y

x= 25-7

<u><em>x=18 </em></u><u>number of hours at baby- sitting</u>
