Answer:

\boxed{\text{22.5 ft}^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Existing walkway

 l = 10 ft

w = 4 ft

A₁ = lw = 10 ft × 4 ft = 40 ft²

New walkway

Expanding a measurement by 25 % means that you multiply it by a factor of 1.25.

New length = 10 × 1.25 = 12.5 ft

New width =    4 × 1.25 =   5    ft

A₂ = lw = 12.5 ft × 5 ft = 62.5 ft²

Increase in area

A₂ - A₁ = 62.5 – 40 = 22.5 ft²

The increase in area is \boxed{\textbf{22.5 ft}^{2}}

What is the best method to solve the system of equations? 2x + 3y = 8 4x - 6y = 2?
Nana76 [90]
Answer: x = 9/4, y = 7/6

║<span>2x + 3y = 8
</span>║<span>4x - 6y = 2

</span>║4x + 6y = 16
║4x - 6y = 2

Add both equations together:

8x = 18
x = 9/4

Sub x = 9/4 into 2x + 3y = 8 
2(9/4) + 3y = 8
9/2 + 3y = 8
3y = 7/2
y = 7/6
