Since the scooter costs $10, we can subtract $10 from $27.
That leaves us with $17.
The scooter costs $4.25/hr, so:
17/ 4.25 = the hours that Maddy can rent the scooter for.
17/ 4.25 = 4
Maddy can rent the scooter for 4 hours.

A school is installing a flagpole in the central plaza. The plaza is a square with side length 100 yards as shown in the figure

Goryan [66]

The length of the flagpole is x - 5 yards

<h3>How to determine the length of the flagpole?</h3>

The complete question is in the image

The area of the flagpole is given as:

Area = x^2 - 10x + 25

Expand the expression

Area = x^2 - 5x -5x + 25

Factorize the expression

Area = (x - 5)(x - 5)

Express as squares

Area =(x - 5)^2

The area of a square is

Area = Length^2

So, we have:

Length = x - 5

Hence, the length of the flagpole is x - 5 yards
