A rectangular yard is X feet wide. The yard is 4 feet longer than it is wide. The perimeter P of yard is given by the equation P
vladimir2022 [97]

Given:

Width of the rectangular yard = x feet

Length of the rectangular yard = x+4 feet

Perimeter of the rectangular yard is:

P=4x+8

Perimeter of the yard = 84 feet

To find:

The length of the rectangular yard.

Solution:

Perimeter of the yard is 84 feet.

4x+8=84

4x=84-8

4x=76

Divide both sides by 4.

x=\dfrac{76}{4}

x=19

So, the width of the rectangular yard is 19 feet.

Length = 19+4

Length = 23

The length of the rectangular field is 23 feet.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

The ratio of the number of cups of blue paint to the number of cups of red paint that Lara mixed to make a shade of purple paint
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Part A: Number of cups of blue paint are 3 that are mixed with each cup of red paint.

Part B: \frac{1}{3}

Part C:<em> $8</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The ratio of the number of cups of blue paint to the number of cups of red paint that Lara mixed to make a shade of purple paint is 3:1.

Part A:

The number of cups of blue paint = 3

The number of cups of red paint = 1

In sentence form, it can be written that:

Number of cups of blue paint are 3 that are mixed with each cup of red paint.

Part B:

3 cups of blue paint requires 1 cup of red paint.

\frac{3}{3}=1 cup of blue paint requires \frac{1}{3} cup of red paint.

Here, unitary method is used.

So, \frac{1}{3} cup of red paint should be added to each cup of blue paint to make shade of purple.

Part C:

6 cups of blue paint are purchased for $48.

1 cup of blue paint is purchased for \frac{\$48}{6} = \$8

One inch is what part of one yard?<br><br> F. 1/12<br> G. 1/100<br> H. 1/3<br> J. 1/36
viva [34]

I think the answer is either:

J.1/36 or G.1/100

Because 1 yard is 0.027778 inch. So it has to be a really small fraction.
