Answer: Area = 1500 feet^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim is enclosing a rectangular garden with 170 feet of fencing. This means the perimeter of the rectangular garden =170 feet
Let length = x
Let width = w
The length of the garden,x is 10 feet more than twice it's width, w. This means
x =10+2w---------1
Perimeter = 2x+2w =170---------2
Putting equation 1 in equation 2,
2(10+2w) +2w= 170
20 + 4w +2w = 170
6w = 170-20=150
w = 150/6
= 25feet
Put w=25 in equation 1
x =10 +2×25= 10+50=60 feet
Area = length × width = x×w
= 60×25=1500feet^2
Answer in fraction form = 1/20
Answer in decimal form = 0.05
Answer in percent form = 5%
These are three ways to express the same thing

Explanation:
Assume the gumball machine only has 5 gumballs, one of each color. The probability of getting yellow is 1/5 since there is one that is yellow out of 5 total.
The probability of getting a lion rubber band is 1/4 for similar reasoning as above.
Because the two events (getting yellow, getting a lion) are independent, this means we can multiply the two probabilities to get (1/5)*(1/4) = 1/20
Use your calculator to see that 1/20 = 0.05 which converts to 5% when you move the decimal point over 2 spots to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:
The slopes of parallel lines are the same. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other, hence their product is -1.
___
For the most part, the concept of adding slopes of lines does not relate to parallel or perpendicular lines in any way.
