Answer:
The total cost depends on the weight of the pacakge
The grocery store selling a 3 pound bag for $4.20. while the other store would sell it for $4.50.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours Nick does the job alone to be x - 3 hours
Hence, in 1 hour, Nick has done 1/x - 3
Together they complete the job in 9 hours
Hence, let's represent the job as 1
9/x + 9/x - 3 = 1
Multiply through by (x)(x-3)
9(x- 3) + 9(x) = 1
9x - 27 + 9x = (x)(x-3)
-27 = x² - 3x
x² - 3x +27 = 0
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:
First let's establish that the problem requires the border to be as long as the total perimeter of the rectangular bulletin board.
Therefore:
Total length of border = Perimeter of rectangular bulletin board
As a rectangle has a total of four sides with two equivalent longer sides and two equivalent shorter sides, we must multiply the value of each of the two sides by two.
Total length of border = 2 ( 2 ) + 2 ( 4 )
Total length of border = 4 + 8
Total length of border = 12 feet
12 > 10
ANSWER:
Therefore, 10 feet of border isn't enough.
