Jim's backyard:
15 5/6 yd long
10 2/5 yd wide
Sod pieced:
1 1/3 yd long
1 1/3 yd wide
Area of backyard:
15 5/6 times 10 2/5 =
164 2/3 yd
Area of Sod Piece:
1 1/3 times 1 1/3 =
1 7/9 yd
Divide area of backyard by area of sod piece :
164 2/3 divided by 1 7/9 =
92 5/8
He will need to buy 93 pieces of sod to cover his backyard.
.003 is 1/10 of .03. To find it divide by 1/10
Answer:
idk but try again. i need help with that one too.
Step-by-step explanation:
This breaks down into a system of equations. George will equal G, Sam will equal S and Alex will equal A. G=S+2 S=A+3 G+S+A=35 since S=A+3, we can substitute S for (A+3). If we plug that into the G=S+2, we get G=(A+3)+2. This simplifies to G=A+5.
our ultimate goal is to be able to substitute for two of their ages so we can solve the last equation for one age or variable. It would be easiest to solve for A.
so far we can substitute for two variables, S=A+3. and G=A+5
Next, we can plug this into the last equation and get 35=(A+3)+(A+5)+A
if we add like terms we get 35=3A+8. Next, we solve the equation by first subtracting 8 from each side. we then get 27=3A, then we divide each side by 3 to solve for A and get A=9.
Now we have one age, we need to find the other two. We can solve this by plugging A to the other two equations. if we do that we get S=(9)+3, or S=12. If we do it to the other equation we get G=(9)+5, or G=14
So your final answer would be George is 14, Sam is 12, and Alex is 9.
Given:
Denver can plant 3 rows of a certain length with 2 seedlings leftover or 4 rows of the same length with 3 seedling spots left empty.
To find:
The equation for the given problem and its solution.
Solution:
Let x be the length of each row.
Denver can plant 3 rows of a certain length with 2 seedlings leftover.
Total number of seeds he has =
...(i)
Denver can plant 4 rows of the same length with 3 seedling spots left empty.
Total number of seeds he has =
...(ii)
Using (i) and (ii), we get

Isolate variable terms.


Therefore, the required equation is
and the values of x is 5. Each row is 5 meters long.
