Assume that the number of leaves raked by Adam is x.
Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam, this means that:
Leaves raked by Tapiwa = x + 0.05x = 1.05x liters
We are given that the total number of raked leaves is 697 liters.
This means that:
Total raked = raked by Adam + raked by Tapiwa
697 = x + 1.05x
697 = 2.05x
x = 697 / 2.05 
x = 340
Based on the above calculations:
Adam raked 340 liters of leaves
Tapiwa raked 1.05(340) = 357 liters of leaves

Which is the smallest number? 2.07,2.7,2.4,2,2.04

I believe it is 2 because, 0.4 is added on to 2. 2.7 is basically 2.70 making it 0.70 bigger than 2. I hope this helped

Answer:

x=70

Step-by-step explanation:

If we extend the lines we can create an imaginary angle that is directly vertically opposite angle x (see picture for visualisation).

Then, using the rule that alternate interior angles are equal, we can deduct that this new angle is 30+40=70 degrees.

Finally, we know that vertically opposite angles are also equal meaning that x=70 degrees.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

a)  The amount of edging needed = 7.54 meters

b)  Cost to edge the garden = $32.80

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

the amount of edging needed is basically the circumference (perimeter) of the circle. It has the formula:

C=2\pi r

Where

C is the circumference

r is the radius

Given, diameter = 2.4, radius is HALF of it, so

r = 2.4/2 = 1.2

Now, finding circumference:

C=2\pi r\\C=2\pi (1.2)\\C=7.54

The amount of edging needed = 7.54 meters

b)

$4.35 is needed to edge 1 meter, since we need 7.54 meters, we find the total cost by multiplying 4.35 with 7.54, so we have:

4.35*7.54 = $32.80

Cost to edge the garden = $32.80
