" / " this means divide, so if your dividing it is 8 because 8 times 3 is 24
Answer:
162.1%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Size of previous living space = 1450 sq ft
Size of new living space = 3800 sq ft
% increase in living space ;
Increase in living space = 3800 - 1450 = 2350 sq feet
(Increase / previous size) * 100%
(2350 / 1450) * 100%
1.6206 * 100%
= 162.06%
= 162.1%
0.016 as a fraction is 16/1000 and in simplest form it is 2/125.
An easy way to figure out the fraction of a decimal is by the decimal places. As we can see, there are four numbers in our decimal (0.016).
The first decimal place = ones
The second decimal place = tenths
The third decimal place = hundredths
The fourth decimal place = thousandths
We stop at the thousandths place, so basically, take 16 and put it over 1000, which looks like 16/1000.
Answer:
F = 3x +(2.7×10^7)/x
Step-by-step explanation:
The formulas for area and perimeter of a rectangle can be used to find the desired function.
<h3>Area</h3>
The area of the rectangle will be the product of its dimensions:
A = LW
Using the given values, we have ...
13.5×10^6 = xy
Solving for y gives ...
y = (13.5×10^6)/x
<h3>Perimeter</h3>
The perimeter of the rectangle is the sum of the side lengths:
P = 2(L+W) = 2(x+y)
<h3>Fence length</h3>
The total amount of fence required is the perimeter plus one more section that is x feet long.
F = 2(x +y) +x = 3x +2y
Substituting for y, we have a function of x:
F = 3x +(2.7×10^7)/x
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
The length of fence required is minimized for x=3000. The overall size of that fenced area is x=3000 ft by y=4500 ft. Each half is 3000 ft by 2250 ft. Half of the total 18000 ft of fence is used for each of the perpendicular directions: 3x=2y=9000 ft.
