Answer:


Number of jobs is 30
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Variable representation</u>
Let Mark's total earnings for moving be m
Let Ryan's total earnings for moving be r
Represent the number of jobs with j
<u>Setup equation</u>
Mark:


So, the total savings is:

Ryan


So, the total savings is:

<u>To get the number of jobs they save the same amount.</u>
We have:

Substitute values for m and r

Collect Like Terms


Divide both sides by 5


<em>Hence, the number of jobs is 30</em>
Start by the basic ratio:
32/12
Divide each side by four, as they both have a factor of 4
32/4=8
12/4=3
New ratio=8/3
The simplified ratio of 32 ft over 12 ft is 8/3
Here we go !!
Since it's a regular pentagon, all it's sides are equal so let's solve for x






now let's find the measure of each side, i.e





perimeter = 5 × side length ( for a regular pentagon )


30 * 11.95 = 358.5 so mr kaplan will end up paying $358.5
