Answer:

\boxed{\text{3 spools}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{1 spool =25 yd}\\\text{Spools needed } = \text{58 yd} \times \dfrac{\text{1 spool}}{\text{25 yd}} = \text{2.32 spools}\\\\\text{However, Shannon can't buy part of a spool. She must $\textbf{round up}$ to the next integer.}\\\text{Shannon must buy $\boxed{\textbf{3 spools}}$ of ribbon}

Answer:

1 spool.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question that 58.0 yards of ribbon equivalent to 2.32 spool.

We have to find number of spools Shannon will buy which will be equivalent to 25 yard ribbon.

∵ 58 yards of ribbon = 2.32 spool

∴ 1 yard of ribbon = \frac{2.32}{58} spool

∴ 25 yards of ribbon = \frac{2.32}{58} × 25

                                  = 1 spool

Therefore, Shannon will buy 1 spool.

Jillian is trying to save water, so she reduces the size of her square grass lawn by 8 feet on each side the area of the smaller
horsena [70]

Answer: 20 feet by 20 feet.


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that x is the original measure of one side. Since it is a square, all its sides are equal.

2. Therefore, to solve the problem you only need to solve for x, as you can see below:

- You have that:

(a-b)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}

- Then, you obtain the following quadratic equation:

(x-8)^{2} =144\\x^{2}-2(x)(8)+8^{2}=144\\x^{2}-16x-80=0

- Apply the Quadratic formula to solve it:

x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\\a=1\\b=-16\\c=-80

- Then, you obtain:

x_1=20\\x_2=-4

3. The dimensions cannot be negative, therefore, the answer is: 20 feet by 20 feet.
