Since the question is related to fencing, that is, the total length of the rectangular garden , so we need to check out the perimeter of the garden .
ANd perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)
Here the sides are 35 feet and 25 feet
So perimeter = 2(12+35) =2*47=94 feet .
So they have to buy 94 feet Benson .
Answer: 21
4/7 = 12/x
Multiply each side by x, so the x drops out on right side:
(4/7)x = 12
Distribute x:
4x/7 = 12
Multiply each side by 7, so the 7 drops out on left side:
4x = 84
Divide:
x = 84/4
x = 21
The slope intercept form is y = me+b
Let n represent the number.
<span>.. (3/5)n - 1 = 23 ... three-fifths of a number decreased by one is twenty-three. </span>
<span>Please note that the same English description might be interpreted as </span>
<span>.. (3/5)(n-1) = 23. </span>
<span>We'll use the first interpretation, as it results in the number being an integer. </span>
<span>.. (3/5)n = 24 ... add 1 </span>
<span>.. n = (5/3)*24 ... multiply by 5/3 </span>
<span>.. n = 40 ... carry out the multiplication </span>
<span>The number is 40.</span>
