Answer:

Josh's salary is 20% less than Jeff's.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> Jeff's salary

y----> Josh's salary

we know that

x=1.25y

Solve for y

y=(1/1.25)x

y=0.8x

therefore

Josh's salary is 80% of Jeff's salary

or

Josh's salary is 20% less than Jeff's.

John bought a bag of lawn fertilizer that will cover 289 square feet. What
erik [133]

Answer:

17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag of lawn fertilizer covers 289 square feet

Dimensions of the largest square plot of lawn that the bag of fertilizer will cover.

Area of a square lawn = length^2

Area of the square lawn = 289 square feet

Area of a square lawn = length^2

289 = length^2

Find the square root of both sides

√289 = √length^2

17 = length

Length = 17 feet

Dimensions of the largest square plot of lawn that the bag of fertilizer will cover = 17 feet by 17 feet

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Segments are named by their endpoints. Therefore, segment PQ will have endpoints P and Q. The length of the segment is equal to the distance between these points.

To find the distance between P and Q given their coordinates, use the distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Let:

P(-2, 7)\implies (x_1, y_1),\\Q(1, 3)\implies (x_2, y_2)

The distance between these points is equal to:

d=\sqrt{(1-(-2))^2+(3-7)^2},\\d=\sqrt{3^2+(-4)^2},\\d=\sqrt{9+16},\\d=\sqrt{25},\\d=\boxed{5}
