Answer:

the first field (rate 3/4) has 32 square yards and the second field (rate 2/3) has 24 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the statement we can make a system of 2x2 equations, where:

"x" is the area of the first field

"y" is the area of the second field

However,

x + y = 56 => x = 56 - y

3/4 * x + 2/3 * y = 40

replacing we have:

3/4 * (56 - y) + 2/3 * y = 40

42 - 3/4 * y + 2/3 * y = 40

-0.0833 * y = 40 - 42

y = -2 / -0.0833

y = 24

now for x:

 x = 56 - 24

x = 32

This means that the first field (rate 3/4) has 32 square yards and the second field (rate 2/3) has 24 square yards.

Damm [24]

Answer: 8 Hours to finish her homework.

Step-by-step explanation: We know each page, or 1 page takes 1 hour to finish. We want to know how many hours it would take to take finish 8 pages of homework. To find this, simply multiply 1 by 8. (1 hour per page, or 1 hour for each of the 8 pages.)

1 x 8 = 8.

So it will take Meredith 8 hours to finish her homework.
