The ratio of tulips to roses is 17 to 11. If there are 3444 tulips and roses in the garden , how many are tulips?

1 answer:

7 0

You can also approach it this way:

28 flowers times n = 3444

so n = 123

11 x 123 = roses, 17 x 123 = tulips.

Those 2 products should add up to 3444.

By decreasing each dimension by 1 unit, the area of a rectangle deceased from 40 square feet to 28 square feet. Find the percent

arsen [322]

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial area is 40 square feet

Final area is 28 square feet

Difference between the initial and final areas will be 40-28=12 square feet

Taking the initial area as the base area and expressing the area change in percentage then the percentage decrease will be equivalent to

$\frac {12\times 100}{40}=30$

Therefore, the decrease in area expressed as a percentage is equal to 30%

If the top of a 4.50 m ladder reaches twice as far up a vertical wall as the foot of the

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

4 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of ladder, L = 4.50 m

Base of ladder from the wall, B = x

Height of the wall, H = 2x

Using Pythagoras theorem

$L^2 = B^2 + H^2$

$4.5^2 = x^2 + (2x)^2$

$5x^2 = 4.5^2$

$x = 2\ m\ (approx.)$

Height of the wall is equal to 2 x 2 = 4 m.
