Maria plans to use fencing to build an enclosure or enclosures for her two horses. A single enclosure would be square shaped and

require an area of 2,025 ft2. Two individual adjacent enclosures would be rectangular, with dimensions 20 ft by 40 ft with a 40 ft divider between the two enclosures.
Which statement explains the design Maria should choose to minimize her costs?

a The singular enclosure would minimize cost because it requires 180 feet of fencing.
b The singular enclosure would minimize cost because it has the smallest area.
c The two individual enclosures would minimize cost because they require 200 feet of fencing.
d The two individual enclosures would minimize cost because they have the largest area.


The answer is A

Step 1
find the perimeter of a <span>single enclosure
perimeter of a square=4*b
where b is the long side of a square
area square=b</span>²
area square=2025 ft²
b²=2025-------> b=√2025-----> b=45 ft
<span>so
perimeter=4*45-------> 180 ft

step 2
</span>find the perimeter of a two individual enclosure
<span>perimeter=4*20+3*40------> 200 ft
area=20*40*2------> 1600 ft</span>²
<span>
therefore
fencing singular enclosure < fencing two individual enclosure
180 ft < 200 ft

</span>area singular enclosure > area two individual enclosure
2025 ft² > 1600 ft²<span>

the answer is the option
</span><span>a The singular enclosure would minimize cost because it requires 180 feet of fencing.</span><span>

Since they are similar, and a side of 10 = a side of 4, the ratio would be 2.5 : 1. You would do 6 * 2.5, which would equal 15, and (15 + 2) / 2 = 8.5 or 17/2

Each morning a deli worker has to make several pies and a bucket of potatoes. On Monday, it took the worker 2 hours to make the
Gala2k [10]

The quantities include hours and minutes.

The the known and unknown quantities can be used to write an equation and this gives 60 minutes.

<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>

It should be noted that there are two different units of time measurement and these are hours and minutes. In this case, once can either convert the hours given to minutes or vice versa.

Therefore,

2 hours = 120 minutes, and

2.5 hours = 150 minutes.

If x represents the number of potatoes in the bucket, then the time to peel all of the potatoes on the first day will be 1.5x.

The quantity added to the 120 minutes spent making pies is the total elapsed time for the first day's work. The first days time is equal to the second day. This will be:

120 + 1.5x = 150 + x

1.5x - x = 150 - 120

0.5x = 30

x = 30/0.5 = 60

The time taken is 60 minutes.
