<span>20x + 12y = 1040
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-12y' to each side of the equation.
20x + 12y + -12y = 1040 + -12y
Combine like terms: 12y + -12y = 0
20x + 0 = 1040 + -12y
20x = 1040 + -12y
Divide each side by '20'.
x = 52 + -0.6y
thats the first part
then we have
</span>25x + 16y = 1350
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-16y' to each side of the equation.
25x + 16y + -16y = 1350 + -16y
Combine like terms:
16y + -16y = 0
25x + 0 = 1350 + -16y
25x = 1350 + -16y
Divide each side by '25'.
x = 54 + -0.64y
The answer to your question is A: 5/3. To get to the top point, you have to go up 5, then go 3 to the right.
Let us solve for the total area. In this problem, we solve area 1 (the rectangle in the middle) and the area 2 ( the two half circle on the sides).
Solve for area 1:
Area rec = L * W = 5units * 4 units = 20 squared units
Solve for area 2:
Area cir = pi *r² = 3.14 * (2 units)² = 12.56 squared units
Total area = 20 + 12.56 = 32.56 foot²
Total cost = 32.56 foot² * ($23/foot²) = $ 748.88
Total cost is $748.88.
