Answer:

4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume this is a rectangular garden.

The area of a rectangle can be found using:

a=l*w

We know the area is 28 square meters and the length is 7 meters. We can substitute 28 in for a, and 7 in for l.

28=7*w

Now we need to solve for w. To solve, we have to get w by itself. 7 and w are being multiplied. To reverse this, divide both sides by 7.

28/7=7*w/7

28/7=w

4=w

The width is 4 meters

Answer:

The answer is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the total area is 28, and the length is 7. Therefore 28 divided by 7 equals 4.

The answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction

To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator to it.

The denominator remains the same.

So, 2 $\frac{2}{3}$ will be $\frac{8}{3}$

2. Now the equation is,

$\frac{3}{2}$ a - $\frac{4}{3}$ a = $\frac{10}{3}$ + $\frac{8}{3}$ a

3. Take LCM on both sides.

For the left side, multiply the first fraction by $\frac{3}{3}$ and multiply the second fraction by $\frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{3*3}{2*3}$ a - $\frac{4*3}{3*3}$ a = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

4. Solve by making a the subject

$\frac{9a-8a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{3a}{6}$ =10+8a

$\frac{a}{2}$ = 10 + 8a

a = 2(10 + 8a)

a = 20 + 16a

a-16a = 20

-15a = 20

a = $\frac{20}{-15}$

a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Therefore, the answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

can you help me evaluate this: 7m + 14m - 6n - 5n + 2m. why do you add 6n with 5n instead of subtract?

Mademuasel [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is because it is not just 6 it is - 6 so when there are two negative numbers they don't subtract they add if it was 6n then it was to be subtracted

21m - 11n + 2m

23m - 11n
