Answer: 17.14 ft

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The area of the flower bed is 60 ft x 80 ft = 4800 ft²

The perimeter of the sidewalk that surrounds the flower bed is:

  •   2(60 ft) + 2(80 ft)
  • = 120 ft + 160 ft
  • = 280 ft

The area of the sidewalk is:

  • perimeter x width
  • = 280w

area of sidewalk = area of flower bed

280w = 4800

\text{w}=\dfrac{4800}{280}

  =\dfrac{120}{7}

  ≈ 17.14

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

1) Slope= 2, y-intercept=4, equation: y=2x+4

2.Slope= -10 , y-intercept= 60 , equation: y=-10x+60

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: \frac{y_{2}-y_1 }{x_2-x_1}

1. Plug in two sets of cordinates into the equation

(0,2) (2,8)

2. Solve, slope =2

3. Plug in one pair into the point slope formula

Point slope formula: y-y_1=slope(x-x_1)

4. y-8=2(x-2)

5.y-8=2x-4

6. y=2x+4

Do the same for the other equation

If a bag has 40 red and blue marbles and a quarter of them are red what is the probability of picking a blue one
ella [17]
Total marbles = 40 & 1/4  (or 0.25) are, then RED = 40x 0.25 = 10

If RED = 10 then BLUE = 30

P(picking one blue) = 30/40 = 3/4 =0.75
