The Johnsons want to cover their backyard with new grass. Their backyard is rectangular, with a length of 3x – 5 feet and a widt

h of 4x – 10 feet. However, their rectangular swimming pool, along with its surrounding patio, has dimensions of x + 8 by x – 2 feet. What is the area of the region of the yard that they want to cover with new grass?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

Their backyard is rectangular, with a length of 3x – 5 feet and a width of 4x – 10 feet. This means that the area of the backyard is

(3x - 5)(4x - 10)

= 12x² - 30x - 20x + 15

= (12x² - 50x + 15) square feet

Their rectangular swimming pool, along with its surrounding patio, has dimensions of x + 8 by x – 2 feet. This means that the area occupied by the swimming pool and its surrounding patio is

(x + 8)(x - 2)

= x² - 2x + 8x - 16

= x² + 6x - 16

Assuming the swimming pool and its surrounding patio will not be covered with new grass, then the area of the region of the yard that they want to cover with new grass is

12x² - 50x + 15 - (x² + 6x - 16)

= 12x² - 50x + 15 - x² - 6x + 16

= 12x² - x² - 50x - 6x + 15 + 16

= 11x² - 56x + 31 square feet

elena55 [62]

Answer:

The answer is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: - 6 - (-6) + 7 + ( - 4) + ( - 1)

= - 6 + 6 + 7 - 4 - 1

= 6 + 7 - 6 - 4 - 1

= (6 + 7) - (6 + 4 + 1)

= 13 - 11

= 2

Hence, the answer.

Gold in the form of solid cylinders will be molded into solid blocks. Each cylinder has a diameter of 6.19 cm and a height of 6
Taya2010 [7]
First, solve for the volume (V) of each cylinder by the equation,
                                     V = πd²h / 4
where d and h are diameter and height, respectively. Substituting the given values,
                                     V = π(6.19 cm)² x (6 cm) / 4 = 180.56 cm³
To determine the number of cylinders needed, divide the volume of the solid block by the volume of the cylinder,
                                       n = 360 cm³ / 180.56 cm³ = 1.99
Thus, approximately 2 cylinders are needed to mold one block of gold.

Calculate how much each size per gram, and circle which gives the best value for money. 250g for $2.30, 400g for &amp;3.40, 1Kg
Bezzdna [24]
To do this, we must set up ratios:
Option One:
\frac{2.30}{250g}  \\  \frac{0.0092}{1g}  \\ 0.0092/g
The first options costs only $0.0092/gram (a fraction of a penny)!
Option Two:
\frac{3.40}{400g}  \\  \frac{0.0085}{1g} \\ 0.0085/g
The second option costs only $0.0085/gram (cheaper than option one)!
Option Three: 
This requires a little more work. First, we have to convert the grams into kilograms. For every 1 kg, there is 1,000 g. Therefore, 1,000g costs $5.65. Next, we set up the ratio as usual:
\frac{5.65}{1000g} \\  \frac{0.00565}{1g}  \\ 0.00565/g
The third option costs $0.00565/gram.

Therefore, option three is the cheapest! 

Hope this helps!

What is the vertex and intercepts for y=(5x-2)(2x+3)
Sophie [7]

Answer:

vertex = (-\frac{11}{20} ,-\frac{361}{40} )

Intercepts for x = (\frac{2}{5} ,0), (-\frac{2}{5} ,0)

intercepts for y = (0,-6)
