Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Sides of the garden</u>
<u>New dimensions of the garden</u>
<u>1. The area of the new garden</u>
- (16 + 2x)(8 + x) =
- 2x^2 + 32x + 128
<u>2. The difference in area </u>
- 2x^2 + 32x + 128 - 16*8 =
- 2x^2 + 32x
<u>3. x= 2 effect on the area</u>
- 2*2^2 + 32*2 =
- 8 + 64 =
- 72 ft²
<u>4. Area difference = 160</u>
- 2x^2 + 32x = 160
- x^2 + 16x - 80 = 0
- Solving we get positive root of 4 ft
<u>5. Area difference = 4 times</u>
- 2x^2 + 32x = 128*3
- 2x^2 + 32x - 384 = 0
- x^2 + 16x - 192= 0
- Solving we get positive root of 8 ft
Answer:
one
Step-by-step explanation:
A unit rate compares a quantity to one unit of measure.
Let oil change be x
91 / 7 = x / 11
(91 * 11) / 7 = x
13 * 11 = x

Answer: 2/3
Step-by-step explanation: convert to same unit. 45/60, 48/60, 40/60
40/60<45/60<48/60
so 2/3 is least
Nolan and his children bought fruits (Apples and bananas) worth $8.
Cost of each apple and bananas are $2 and $0.40 respectively.
Let the number of bananas he bought = y
And the number of apples = x
Therefore, cost of the apples =$2x
And the cost of bananas = $0.40y
Total cost of 'x' apples and 'y' bananas = $(2x + 0.40y)
Equation representing the total cost of fruits will be,
(2x + 0.40y) = 8
10(2x + 0.40y) = 10(8)
20x + 4y = 80
5x + y = 20 --------(1)
If he bought 5 times as many bananas as apples,
y = 5x ------(2)
Substitute the value of y from equation (2) to equation (1),
5x + 5x = 20
10x = 20
x = 2
Substitute the value of 'x' in equation (2)
y = 5(2)
y = 10
Therefore, Nolan bought 2 apples and 10 bananas.
