Present area = 120 * 80 = 9600 ft^2 so the new area will be 9600 + 4400 = 14000

So if increase in length = x we have

(x + 120)(x + 80) = 14,000

x^2 + 200x + 9600 - 14000 = 0

x^2 + 200x - 4400 = 0

x = 20 feet answer

What is 0 + y when y = -11
Mashutka [201]

when y = -11, 0 + y is equal to -11.

the question is asking us to add 0 to the given value of y. the given value of y is -11, so place -11 into 0 + y and you get 0 + -11. since you are adding zero, you are making no changes to the y value, so it stays at -11.

<em>hope this helps and have a great day!</em>

A paint shop stocks 1800 liters of paint 24% of the paint is white. The shops sells 18% of the white paint and 7% of the rest of
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:The amount of paint that was sold altogether is 173.36 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of paint that the paint shop stocks is 1800 litres.

24% of the paint is white. It means that the amount of white paint would be

24/100 × 1800 = 0.24 × 1800 = 432 litres.

The amount of the remaining paint other than white would be

1800 - 432 = 1368 litres

The shops sells 18% of the white paint. This means that the amount of white paint sold by the shop will be

18/100 × 432 = 0.18 × 432 = 77.6 litres.

The shops sells 7% of the rest of the paint.

This means that the amount of the rest paint sold by the shop will be

7/100 × 1368 = 0.07 × 1368 = 95.76 litres.

The amount of paint that was sold altogether would be

77.6 + 95.76 = 173.36 litres
