given

20 \times \frac{1}{2}  +  \:  - 50 \times \frac{3}{4}

negative × positive = negative

therefore the equation is written as

20 \times \frac{1}{2}  - 50 \times \frac{3}{4}

20÷2 =10

50÷4 = 25/2

now the general equation is

10 -   \frac{25 \times 3}{4}

= 10 -  \frac{75}{4}

now we find the L.C.M by multiplying the denominators which is 4×1 = 4 as the L. C. M,

now multiply through by the L . C .M which is 4

= 4 \times 10 - 4 \times  \frac{75}{4}

= 40 - 75

=  - 35

as our final answer.

A city park commission received a donation of playground equipment from a parents' organization. The area of the playground need
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Length = 20.49 yards and Width = 12.49 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangular playground is given by 256 yards square. It is also known that one of the sides of the playground is 8 yards longer than the other side. Therefore, let the smaller side by x yards. Then the longer side will be (x+8) yards. The area of the rectangle is given by:

Area of the rectangle = length * width.

256 = x*(x+8)

x^2 + 8x = 256. Applying the completing the square method gives:

(x)^2 + 2(x)(4) + (4)^2 = 256 + 16

(x+4)^2 = 272. Taking square root on both sides gives:

x+4 = 16.49 or x+4 = -16.49 (to the nearest 2 decimal places).

x = 12.49 or x = -20.49.

Since length cannot be negative, therefore x = 12.49 yards.

Since smaller side = x yards, thus smaller side = 12.49 yards.

Since larger side = (x+8) yards, thus larger side = 12.49+8 = 20.49 yards.

Thus, the length and the width to minimize the perimeter of fencing is 20.49 yards and 12.49 yards respectively!!!
