Answer: 1.) Irrational (because its not terminal)
2.)
Monica built a porch that contained 2 different colors of bricks to create a pattern. She purchased the red bricks for $7 each a
1 answer:
Equation #1: x+y=40
Equation #2: 7x+4y=193
Monica bought 11 red bricks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost of one red brick = $7
Cost of one gray brick = $4
Total spent on bricks = $193
Total bricks bought = 40
Let,
x represents the number of red bricks bought.
y represents the number of gray bricks bought.
What is the system that models this situation?
Equation #1: x+y=40
Equation #2: 7x+4y=193
How many red bricks did Monica purchase?
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 4
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 3
Monica bought 11 red bricks.

Here we can first find the area of yard and then subtract the area of vegetable garden to get the required area.
The formula to find area is given by:
Now we find area of yard:
length is 25 ft and width is 15 ft.
Area of yard = 375 ft²
Area of vegetable garden:
length = 8ft and width =8ft
So the vegetable garden is a square.
Area = 8*8
Area of vegetable garden =64 ft²
Area of backyard to be laid with grass = Area of yard-Area of vegetable garden
Area required = 375 -64 = 311 ft²
Answer : The area of backyard in which grass is to be laid is 311 square feet.
