So each of these statements are talking about the square footage of land per person. Let's go and find it!

First off, let's find the number in each building of the original complex:
280 people / 4 buildings

Each building has an equal number of residents. So just divide:
280/4 = 70.

So 70 residents per building

Now consider the fact that once a new building is built, another 70 people will move in.
280 + 70= 350

350 people total.

Then lets look at the plot of land
Originally, there are 200,000 square feet of land for the 4 buildings. Then after the expansion, the plot of land will be:
200,000 + 200*200
= 200,400

Go back to the question. What's the effect of the expansion in terms of square feet of land per person?
Divide!
200,400 / 350
Approximately = 572.57 square feet

Then since it's being compared to the amount each resident had before the expansion, do the same thing with the corresponding numbers:
200,000 / 280
Approximately = 714.29

So how much will each person's land decrease?
714.29 - 572.57 approximately = 141.72 square feet.

The answer is the first choice!

Hope this helps

Consider the following equations and name the property of equality used to solve for the variable.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Subtraction property ; x = 3.25

Division property ; - 6

multiplication property ; - 125

Addition property ; 13

Step-by-step explanation:

A.)

x + 3.75 = 7

Using the subtraction property : subtract 3.75 from both sides

x + 3.75 - 3.75 = 7 - 3.75

x = 3.25

B. )

–3b = 18

According to the division property :

Divide both sides by - 3

-3b / - 3 = 18 / - 3

b = - 6

C.)

m/5 = - 25

Using the multiplication property :

m/5 * 5 = - 25 * 5

m = - 125

D.)

m – 4 = 9

Using the addition property :

Add 4 to both sides :

m - 4 + 4 = 9 + 4

m = 13

What is m∠S? Enter your answer in the box. ° An isosceles triangle with vertices labeled R, S, and T. Side R T is the base. Side
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

m<S = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle equals 180 deg.

m<R + m<S + m<T = 180

3x + 2x + 3x = 180

8x = 180

x = 22.5

m<S = 2x = 2(22.5) = 45

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution x+4y =37 y = -x + 16
pantera1 [17]
You plug -x+16 in for y in x+4y=37 to get x after you multiply x+4y=37 by -1.
-x-4(-x+16)=-37
-x+4x-64=-37
3x-64=-37
3x=27
x=9
Then you plug 9 into either equation to get y.
y=-x+16
y=-(9)+16
y=7

x=9 and y=7
