4a + 6b = 10
2a - 4b = 12...multiply by -2
----------------
4a + 6b = 10
-4a + 8b = - 24 (result of multiplying by -2)
------------------add
14b = - 14
b = -14/14
b = -1
2a - 4b = 12
2a - 4(-1) = 12
2a + 4 = 12
2a = 12 - 4
2a = 8
a = 8/2
a = 4
so 12a = 12(4) = 48 <==
If the width of the garden is w, then the maximum area available is a square, giving you w² as the dimensions. So:
w²=-w²+28w
2w²=28w
w=14
The perimeter is 14 x 4, or 56 feet

Step-by-step explanation:
there are 2 similar triangles : ABE and DCE
that means they have the same angles, and the scaling factor from one triangle to the other is the same for every side.
and that means that
DE/AE = EC/BE (= DC/AB)
we know that
AE = AD + DE
BE = BC + EC
a.
so, we have actually
DE/(AD+DE) = EC/(BC+EC)
DE/(10+DE) = 8/(2+8) = 8/10 = 4/5
DE = 4(10+DE)/5
5DE = 4(10+DE) = 40 + 4DE
DE = 40 cm
b.
AD/DE = 3/5
BC/EC must be 3/5 too.
15/EC = 3/5
15 = 3EC/5
75 = 3EC
EC = 25 cm
Answer:
k = 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitue y = 12, x = 24 into y = kx.
12 = k × 24
24k = 12
k = 12 ÷ 24
k = 0.5 (final answer)
The answer is - 57 is 76% of 75
