Answer:

12.5 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a square yard of carpet = x

The cost of installing a carpet is given by;

100 + 8x

The charge for installation

75 + 10x

The number of square yards of carpet for which the cost including carpet and installation is the same is given by;

100 + 8x = 75 + 10x

100 - 75 = 10x - 8x

25 = 2x

x = 25 / 2

x = 12.5 square yards.

5. Two-fifths of a number is -26. Find the number.
klio [65]

Answer:

x = -65

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off, we can create our equation. We know that "of" is just another word for multiply. We will then end up with \frac{2}{5} * x = -26. To solve this equation, we will find \frac{2}{5} of -26. To make things less confusing, lets take away the negative for now. 26 x 5 = 130 and 130 ÷ 2  is 65. We then add our negative back on and x = -65.

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The length and width of a rectangular garden is 10 m and 3 m respectively.

He will double the area of the garden by adding the same number of meters to both the length and the width. Area = 2(10 × 3) = 60 m².

Let x is amount of increase in the length and width such that area will be :

(10+x)(3+x) =60

30+10x+3x+x² = 60

x²+13x-30=0

x²+15x-2x-30=0

x(x+15)-2(x+15)=0

x=2 and x = -15

Neglecting negative value, he aded 2 m toboth length and width of the garden.
