16x+5=-11

Were trying to get the x alone.

First subtract 5.

16x=-16

Then divide by 16.

x=-1

The perimeter of a football field is 920 feet. The width is 60 feet more than one-third of the length. What are the dimensions o

Step2247 [10]

Given:

Perimeter of a football field = 920 feet.

The width is 60 feet more than one-third of the length.

To find:

The dimensions of a football field.

Solution:

Let the length of the field be x.

Then, width = $\dfrac{1}{3}x+60$

We know that,

$Perimeter = 2( length + width)$

$920 = 2(x+\dfrac{1}{3}x+60)$

$920 = 2(\dfrac{4}{3}x+60)$

$920 =\dfrac{8}{3}x+120$

Subtract both sides by 120.

$920-120 =\dfrac{8}{3}x+120-120$

$800 =\dfrac{8}{3}x$

Multiply both sides by 3.

$2400 =8x$

Divide both sides by 8.

$300 =x$

Now,

$Length = 300\text{ feet}$

$Width=\dfrac{1}{3}(300)+60$

$Width=100+60$

$Width=160\text{ feet}$

Therefore, the length and width of the football field are 300 feet and 160 feet respectively.

A recipe for fruit punch requires 1 1/2 quarts of orange juice to make 6 quarts of punch. How many

Bingel [31]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$ quarts of orange juice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Quarts of orange juice required for 6 quarts of punch = $1\frac{1}{2} =\frac{3}{2}$

∴ Quarts of orange juice required for 1 quart of punch = $\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{6}=\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}$

Therefore, $\frac{1}{4}$ quarts of orange juice are required for one quart of punch.
