Answer:

Let x be the no.of square feet for landscaping

Company A

Monthly consulting fee = $250

Cost of landscaping of 1 sq.feet = $10

Cost of landscaping of x sq.feet = $10x

So, Total charge by company A = 250+10x  ---1

Company B

Monthly consulting fee = $90

Cost of landscaping of 1 sq.feet = $12

Cost of landscaping of x sq.feet = $12x

So, Total charge by company B = 90+12x   ---2

Now we are supposed to find  how many square feet of landscaping will the two companies charge the same amount

So, Equate 1 and 2

250+10x=90+12x

160=2x

80=x

So, the two companies charge the same amount for 80 sq.feet

Total charge by company A for 80 sq.feet = 250+10(80)= $1050

Total charge by company B for 80 sq.feet = 90+12(90)=$1170

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

453.75 sq. feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are going to calculate the area of a room given the blue print measurement and the actual measurements with the answer being in the actual measurement.

To correctly do this, it is best if the measurements are converted to the actual.

The measurements we’ll be trying to convert is 5 inches by 3 inches with a scale of 2in to 11ft ( same as 1 in to 5.5 ft)

The 5 inches blueprint measurement will be 5 * 5.5 = 27.5 ft

The 3 inches blueprint measurement will be 3 * 5.5 = 16.5 ft

The area in sq. feet will be length * width = 27.5 * 16.5 = 453.75 sq feet
