Answer:

225 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Area of the rectangular garden</h3>

The area of the rectangular garden is:

40 × 10 = 400 square feet

<h3>Size of the new square garden</h3>

First we find the perimeter of the old garden:

(40 x 2) + (10 x 2) = 100 feet of fencing

Then we find the size of the new garden, because it is a square we divide by 4:

100 ÷ 4 = 25 feet

<h3>Area of the new garden</h3>

The area of the new garden is:

25 x 25 = 625 square feet

The difference is 625 - 400 = 225 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This 40-foot by 10-foot garden would have an area of 400 feet...

40 x 10 = 400

It would also use a total of 100 feet of fencing...

40 + 10 + 40 + 10 = 100

To find how long each side would be if it were transformed into a square, simply divide 100 by 4...

100 / 4 = 25

Now that each side is 25 feet, we need to figure out what the area of the new garden is, and how much larger it is than the old garden...

25 x 25 = 625

This is the area of the new garden.

Area of the old garden = 400 square feet

Area of the new garden = 625 square feet

The new garden is 225 square feet larger than the old garden!

Sara has $65 and wants to buy the following items from a store. Board game: $14.95 Building blocks: $25.49 Art kit: $35.79 At th
valina [46]

The correct statement is Sara can afford to purchase the items because the final price of the items is $60.

The first step is to determine the total cost of the items Sara wants to buy. The total cost can be determined by adding the cost of the items together.

Total cost = $14.95 + $25.49 + $35.79 = $76.23

The second step is to determine the cost of the items after the discount.

Price of the items = total cost x (1 - discount)

= total cost x (1 - 1/4)

total cost x 3/4

$76.23 x 3/4 = $57.17

The third step is to determine the cost of the items after tax.

Cost = (1.05) x $57.17 =$60.03

As you move up a linear demand​ curve, the price elasticity of demand in absolute value A. decreases. B. increases. C. stays the
Andreyy89

Answer:

The answers to the questions are;

B. increases.  

C. ​inelastic; increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price elasticity of demand for a linear demand in absolute value curve becomes smaller and smaller as we move downwards of the curve.

When the price elasticity of demand is calculated along a linear demand curve. This is so as for each pair of points at which the price elasticity of demand is calculated, the quantity demanded and the price change are somewhat  similar, but as we move towards the top of the demand curve, the high prices and the low quantities shows the increase in demand elasticity.

Also in the inelastic region, as it can be shown by the areas of the rectangles formed by to adjacent price points, increase in price, increases the total revenue.
