<span>Owls are found in many different habitats, such as deserts, forests, prairies and even the Arctic tundra. They nest in trees, in holes in the ground, in barns, and in caves. And while many other birds migrate to warmer places during the winter, most owls do not. They live in the same place all year round.</span>
The answer is 3 for sure.
To find the side lengths, you have to factor 4x^2 + 28x + 49. This equation factored is (2x+7)(2x+7), so each side length is (2x+7) feet.
Kiran earns $8.50 per hour.
Let x represent Kiran's pay. He worked 23 hours last week, so his pay would be given by 23x.
Kiran's cousin is paid 30% more. 30% = 30/100 = 0.3. We add this to the x per hour that Kiran is paid:
x + 0.3x = 1.3x
This is multiplied by 27, since Kiran's cousin works 27 hours:
27(1.3x)
This gives us the following equation:
23x + 27(1.3x) = 493.85
23x + 35.1x = 493.85
58.1x = 493.85
Divide both sides by 58.1:
58.1x/58.1 = 493.85/58.1
x = 8.5
Thus Kiran earns 8.50 per hour.
