Answer:

the value of x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the x in question

3/4(x - 16) = -2(x -3) + 4

let us get started by rearragging and opening the brackets

3(x-16)/4 = -2(x-3) + 4

(3x - 48)/4 = -2x +6 +4

(3x - 48)/4 = -2x +10

multiply through by 4

we have,

3x -48 = -8x + 40

collect the like terms

3x+8x = 40 + 48

11x = 88

divide both sides by 11

11x/11 = 88/11

x = 8

A family built a house and wanted to put down in their rectangular yard. The sod costs $0.32 per square foot plus 10 per square

sammy [17]

Answer:

The total cost of purchasing and laying sods in the rectangular yard is $2,146.67

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Dimensions of rectangular yard:

Length = 50 feet

Width = 30 feet

Area of rectangular yard =

$A = \text{Length}\times \text{Width}\\A = 50\times 30\\A = 1500\text{ square feet}$

Cost of sod = $0.32 per square foot

Total cost of sod =

$C_1 = \text{Unit cost of sod}\times \text{Area of yard}\\C_1 = 0.32\times 1500\\C_1 = 480\$$

Cost of laying sods = $10 per square yard

Total cost of laying sod =

$C_2 = \text{Unit cost of laying sod}\times \text{Area of yard}\\\\\text{1 square yard}=\dfrac{1}{9}\text{Square foot}\\\\C_2 = 10\times \dfrac{1500}{9}\\\\C_2 = 1666.67\$$

Total cost of purchasing and laying the sod =

$C = C_1 + C_2\\C = 480 +1666.67\\C = \$2,146.67$

Thus, the total cost of purchasing and laying sods in the rectangular yard is $2,146.67
