Answer:
The entire floor can contain approximately 4178 fans
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to calculate the area of the basketball floor.
we can do this by multiplying the length by the breadth as such 94 X 50 = 4700 square feet.
The second step is to calculate the area occupied by 8 of the fans. We can do this by multiplying 3 ft by 3ft = 9 square feet.
From this, it will be easier to estimate the area occupied by only one fan. This can be got by dividing 9 square feet by 8.
This is = 1.125 square feet.
To get the number of students it can occupy, we divide the total area of the court by the area occupied by one student.
4700/ 1.125 =4177.8
4178 fans
The common denominator for 25 and 20 would be 100
25 x 4 = 100
20 x 5 = 100
Rewrite 14/25 as 14 x 4 / 25 x 4 = 56/100
Rewrite 11/20 as 11 x 5 / 20 x 5 = 55/100
14/25 is greater than 11/20
14/25 > 11/20
Answer:
(- 1, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - y = - 3 → (1)
x + y = 0 → (2)
Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the term in y, that is
3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = - 1
Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (2)
- 1 + y = 0 ( add 1 to both sides )
y = 1
Solution is (- 1, 1 )
