Let the length equal x
Then the width would be 4x + 8 (8 feet more than 4 times the length)
Area = length x width:
5,472 = x * 4x+ 8
Simplify:
5472 = 4x^2 + 8x
Subtract 5472 from both sides:
4 x^2 + 8x - 5472 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for x.
X = 36
Now you know the length is 36 feet
The width = 4(36) + 8 = 152 feet
Now find the perimeter: 152 + 152 + 36 + 36 = 376 feet.
The answer is B. 376
-7(2)+y=60
-14+y=60
y=60+14
Y=74
Answer:
15 of $3 books and 4 of the $8 books
Step-by-step explanation:
15×3= 45
8 × 4= 34
45+32= 77
To solve this problem, we must figure out what percent of the total spending was spent on mommy and baby exercise programs. To figure this out, we should divide how much was spent on the mommy and baby exercise by the total amount spent on the district activities.
$1430/$5720 = 0.25
This is a percentage, or a portion out of 100, which means we must multiply this decimal by 100 to find its equivalent percentage.
0.25 * 100 = 25
Therefore, your answer is 25% of the total spending was spent on mommy and baby exercise programs.
Hope this helps!
