This is simply    15   1/4    ÷   2/3

For there to be maximum lots, it should be divided by 2/3.

It should not be greater than 2/3 

<span>This is simply    15   1/4    ÷   2/3
</span>
(15*4 +1)/4   ÷  2/3

61/4  ×  3/2 = 183/8 = 22.875

Maximum number of lots created = 22

Well, if you want the maximum number of splits, then you want to make
each individual split as small as possible. 
That's 2/3 acre.  How many will that give you ?

                  (15 and 1/4) divided by (2/3)

             =      (15.25)  /  (0.666...)  =  22.875 pieces .

The maximum number of 2/3-acre lots you can sell is 22 lots.

Then you have 58.3% of an acre of land left over that you can't sell
because it's less than 2/3 acre.  Sadly, that 58.3% of an acre is just
about the size of the lot that I've been living n for almost 30 years. 
You really know how to rub it in, dontcha !

How many solutions are there to the equation below 15x+11=8x
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

There is one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

15x+11=8x

Subtract 15x from each side

15x-15x +11 = 8x-15x

11 = -7x

Divide by -7

11/-7 = -7x/-7

-11/7 =x

There is one solution

For questions 1 – 6, find the area of the circle to the nearest hundredth.<br> Any help appriciated!
Ganezh [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by :

A = πr²

r is the radius of the circle

(4) Diameter = 22 cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 11 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (11)^2\\\\A=380.13\ cm^2

(5) Diameter = 30 cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 15 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (15)^2\\\\A=706.85\ cm^2

(6) Diameter = 4cm

Since, radius = diameter/2

r = 2 cm

Now, area of the circle,

A=\pi \times (2)^2\\\\A=12.56\ cm^2

So, the area of circles 4,5 and 6 are 380.13², 706.85² and 12.56² respectively.

Please need help fast. Look at the picture.<br><br> Please explain.
Zigmanuir [339]
The answer is 17

This is because 1 + 2 must equal 180 as they are in a straight line.
So 4x + 2 + 110 = 180
Take away 110 from both sides
4x + 2 = 70
Take away 2 from both sides to get 4x = 68. Finally, divide both sides by 4 to get x = 17
