The <em>approximate increase</em> in Area of the parking lot is about 133%
Area of a rectangle = Length × width
<u>Initial Area of parking lot</u> :
- 75 feets × 150 feets = 11250 ft²
<u>New Area of parking lot</u> :
Width = 75 + 100 = 175 feets
Length = 150 feets
Area = 175 × 150 = 26250 ft²
<u>Percentage increase in </u><u>Area</u><u> </u><u>of lot</u> :
((16250 - 11250) / initial Area) × 100%
(15000 / 11250) × 100% = 133.33%
Therefore, the <em>approximate increase</em> on area of lot is 133%

Well if her simplifies 1 3/7 to 1 1/2 and 5 4/5 to 6 then he would be overestimating because 1 1/2 is greater than 1 3/7 and 6 is greater than 5 4/5
Hope this helps!
Add up the two acres 60 3/4
then multiply by 4/5 and you get 48.6
that should be your answer.
7y - 2y + 8 = 19 + 4y
7y - 2y - 4y = 19 - 8
1y = 19 - 8
1y = 11
Ans is y = 11
