Answer:

1800 sq ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of space in the garage.

We know that he is estimating 6 sq ft per person, for 15 people; this gives us

6(15) = 90 sq ft.

This is 5% of the total, x; 5% = 5/100 = 0.05; this gives us 0.05x.

Together these give us the equation

0.05x = 90

Divide both sides by 0.05:

0.05x/0.05 = 90/0.05

x = 1800

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

P = (18a+10b+13) cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A triangle has the lengths of (10a+9) cm, (8a—3) cm and (10b+7) cm.

We need to find an expression that represents the perimeter of the triangle.

Perimeter = sum of all sides

P = (10a+9) + (8a-3) + (10b+7)

Taking like terms together,

P = (10a+8a)+10b+(9-3+7)

= 18a+10b+13

Hence, the epresssion for the perimeter is (18a+10b+13) cm.
