Answer:
144 carrots
Step-by-step explanation:
Let C stand for the number of carrots that a student can plant.
We are told that carrots may be planted at a density of 9 carrots/ft^2.
Let A be the area, in ft^2, that can be planted with carrots. The area of a rectangle is Base x Length (in feet).
We can therefore write:
C = (9 carrots/ft^2)*A
In the garden shown, the area is A = (4 ft) x (4 ft) = 16 ft^2
C = 9 carrots/ft^2)*(16 ft^2)
C = 144 carrots
After solving simultaneously we found the values for x and y are
2.76 and 5.65 respectively
<h3>Simultaneous Equations</h3>
We have the following two expressions
7x – 2y = 34 --------1
3x + 5y = -3 ---------2
Multiply 1 by eqn 5 and eqn 2 by 2
35x - 10y = 170-------3
6x + 10y = -6 ----------4
subtracting 4 from 3 we have
29 x= 164
divide both sides by 29
x = 164/29
x = 5.65
Put x = 5.65 in eqn 1 to find y
7*5.65 – 2y = 34
39.55 - 2y = 34
39.55-34 = 2y
5.55 = 2y
divide both sides by 2
x = 5.55/2
x = 2.76
