The decimal equivalent to 3/4 is 0.75
<h3>The dimensions of the gym floor could be 150 feet by 120 feet</h3><h3>The dimensions of the gym floor could be 225 feet by 180 feet</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
The dimensions of the swimming pool and the gym are proportional
The pool is 75 feet long by 60 feet wide
To find: set of possible dimensions for the gym
To determine the possible dimensions for the gym, you would use the same number to multiply both 75 and 60
<em><u>One set of dimensions are:</u></em>
75 x 2 = 150
60 x 2 = 120
The dimensions of the gym floor could be 150 feet by 120 feet
<em><u>Other set of dimensions:</u></em>
75 x 3 = 225
60 x 3 = 180
The dimensions of the gym floor could be 225 feet by 180 feet
Because the two lines parallel, so we have x+40=3x-10
Or 3x-x=40+10
And 2x=50, so we obtain x=25
That is the answer
1. identify the abc... ax^2+bx+c
2. write down all the factor pairs of C
3. identify which factor pairs from the previous step sums up to letter B
4.subsitute factor pairs in 2 binomials :)
