Answer:

<h2>11.11 square yard </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

charges=$90

installation=$9 per square yard

total cost of installation= $810

let x represents the number of square feet

Step two:

The expression for the installation cost is given as

810=9x+90------------1

solve for x, collect like terms

810-90=9x

720=9x

divide both sides by 9 we have

x=720/9

x=11.11 square yard

Find the value of k so that the graph of 13y + kx = 4 and the line containing the points (5, -8) and (2, 4) are parallel.
guajiro [1.7K]

the graph of 13y + kx = 4 and the line containing the points (5, -8) and (2, 4) are parallel.

We find the slope of parallel line using two given points

(5, -8) and (2, 4)

Slope formula is

slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

slope = \frac{4-(-8)}{2-5}

slope = \frac{12)}{-3}=-4

so slope = -4

Slope of any two parallel lines are always equal

Lets find the slope of the equation 13y + kx = 4

Subtract kx on both sides

13 y = -kx + 4

Divide both sides by 13

y= \frac{-kx}{13} + \frac{4}{13}

Now slope = -k/13

We know slope of parallel lines are same

So the slope of 13y + kx = 4  is also -4

Hence we equation the slope and find out k

\frac{-k}{13}=-4

Multiply by 13 on both sides and divide by -1

k = 52

the value of k = 52

Two fifths of one less than a number is less than three fifths of one more than that number .what numbers are in the solution se
Lelechka [254]

2/5(x - 1) < 3/5(1 + x)

To find the solution, we can use the distributive property to simplify.

2/5x - 2/5 < 3/5 + 3/5x

Multiply all terms by 5.

2x - 2 < 3 + 3x

Subtract 2x from both sides.

-2 < 3 + x

Subtract 3 from both sides.

-5 < x

<h3><u>The value of x is greater than the value of -5.</u></h3>

Solve for x:<br><br><br><br> 2 x + 10 + 2 x - 6 = 36
skad [1K]
Group together the like terms (plus 2x with 2x) (subtract 10 by 6)

4x+4=36

Move plus four to the other side as a negative

4x=32

Divide both sides by 4

32 divided by 4 is 8


Therefore, x is equal to 8

You are visiting a rainforest, but unfortunately,your insect repellent has run out. As a result, at each second, a mosquito land
zmey [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Prob at each second, a mosquito lands on your neck =0.5

Prob it bites/it lands = 0.2

Prob it does not bite/it lands = 0.8

Hence in one second prob for getting a bite = 0.5(0.2) = 0.01

i.e. 1/100 chance of getting bitten in one second

In 100 seconds number of bites =1

Expected time between successive bites = 100
