Answer:

74 feet and 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Mentioned that

The  Length of the dog park is = (8x + 2)............(i)

And,

The Width of the park is = (2x -12)..................(ii)

Perimeter = 160 feet

Now here we use the perimeter formula which is

Perimeter is

= 2 (length + width)

160 = 2 (8x + 2 + 2x - 12)

160 = 2 (10x - 10)

160 = 20x - 20

180 = 20x

x = 9

Now put the x value into the equation 1 and equaton 2

For the equaton 1, the length us

= 8x + 2

= 8(9) + 2

= 74 feet

And, the width is

= 2x - 12

= 2(9) - 12

= 18 - 12

= 6 feet

9 x 10 to the power of 2 how many times as much as 3 x 10 to the -2 power
hjlf

Answer:

  3×10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired factor is found by calculating the ratio of the two numbers:

  k = (9×10^2)/(3×10^-2) = (9/3)×10^(2 -(-2)) = 3×10^4

The first number is 3×10^4 = 30,000 times as much as the second number.
