Area of pool edge = Area of big rectangle - Area of the pool
Area of pool edge = Area of the pool = 40 × 60 = 2400 ft²
2400 = Area of big rectangle - 2400
Area of big rectangle = 2400 + 2400
Area of big rectangle = 4800
Length × width = 4800
From the diagram, we need the length to be [x + x] more than the length of the pool, where x is the distance from the pool edge to the patio edge.
We also need the width of the big rectangle to be [[x + x] more than the width of the pool.
Length = 60 + 2x
Width = 40 + 2x
Length × Width = [60+2x] × [40+2x]
4800 = 2400 + 120x + 80x + 4x²
0 = 4x² + 200x - 2400
0 = 4[x² + 50x - 600]
0 = x² + 50x - 600
0 = [x - 60] [x + 10]
x - 60 = 0 OR x + 10 = 0
x = 60 OR x = -10
We can only use the positive value of x since the context is length
Hence, x = 60
Both 17/10 and 2 4/5 should be rounded up in preparation for this estimation.
17/10 is close to 2 and 2 4/5 is close to 3. Thus, your estimated answer should be
2/3, or approx. 0.6666....
Exact answer: divide 17/10 by 14/5. LCD is 10, so convert 14/5 to 28/10.
Now divide 17/10 by 28/10. Answer: 17/28 = approx. = 0.607 approx.
These two results are comparable: 0.6666.... and 0.6071 ....
Answer:
110 + 10x ; 40x
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
For every visit to Arts museum:
Scenario 1:
Parking fee = $15
Admission fee = $25
Total amount for scenario 1:
If number of visits = x
Total cost = $(15 + 25) × number of visits
Total cost : $40x
With membership :
Price of membership = $110 (one time payment)
Parking fee = $10
Admission fee = $0
Let number of visits = x
Total cost :
Membership fee + (parking fee × number of visits)
$110 + ($10 * x)
= 110 + 10x
B) number of visits for which member cost is less than non-member cost :
Member cost = 110 + 10x
Non member cost = 40x
110 + 10x < 40x
10x - 40x < 110
-30x < 110
x > 3.67
Hence x = 4
Number of visits for which member cost is greater than non member cost is 4
