Answer:
The width is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call: L the length of the field and W the width of the field.
From the sentence, the perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 382 yards we can formulate the following equation:
2L + 2W = 382
Because the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of two times the length with two times the width.
Then, from the sentence, the length of the field is 9 yards less than triple the width, we can formulate the following equation:
L = 3W - 9
So, replacing this last equation on the first one and solving for W, we get:
2L + 2W = 382
2(3W - 9) + 2W = 382
6W -18 +2W = 382
8W - 18 = 382
8W = 382 + 18
8W = 400
W = 400/8
W = 50
Replacing W by 50 on the following equation, we get:
L = 3W - 9
L = 3(50) - 9
L = 141
So, the width of the rectangular field is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.
Put it in slope form: y=mx+b
8y= 4x-16
Divide by 8
Y = 1/2x -2
1/2 is x intercept and -2 is y intercept
Answer:
60%
Step-by-step explanation:
45 pieces out of 75 pieces are chocolate
45/75
Divide: 45/75 = 0.6
To get percentage from a decimal, move the decimal point to the right two place values
0.6 => 60%
60% of his candy are chocolate
