50:40=x:35
5/4=x/35
times both sides by (4*35)
5*35=4x
175=4x
divide both sides by 4
43.75=x
costs $43.75

Answer:
x = -1,5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² - 8x - 10
2x² - 10x + 2x - 10
2x(x - 5) + 2(x - 5)
(x - 5)(2x + 2)
x = 5 x = -2/2
x = -1,5
If 3 is 50%
3 x 2 = 6
If 6 is another 50%
6 x 2 = 12
If 12 is another 50%
12 x 2 =24
Therefore there were 24 cherries in the bowl!
Answer:
16.5 ft by 25.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the garden in feet. Then w+9 is the garden's length, and w(w+9) represents its area.
The surrounding walkway adds 8 feet to each dimension, so the total area of the garden with the walkway is ...
(w+8)(w+9+8) = w^2 +25w +136
If we subtract the area of the garden itself, then the remaining area is that of the walkway:
(w^2 +25w +136) - (w(w+9)) = 400
16w + 136 = 400 . . .simplify
16w = 264 . . . . . . . . subtract 136
264/16 = w = 16.5 . . . . . width of the garden in feet
w+9 = 25.5 . . . . . . . . . . .length of the garden in feet
