The initial dimenssions of the park lot are:
length: 140 ft
width: 90 ft
initial area: 140 * 90 = 12,600 ft^2
Area increased 29% = 12,600 * 1.29 = 16,254 ft^2
width of the strips: x
New length: 140 + x
New width: 90 + x
New area: (140+x)(90+x) = 16,254
Solution of the equation:
12600 + 230x + x^2 = 16254
=> x^2 + 230x - 3654 = 0
Use the quadratic formula.
x = {-230 +/- √[ 230^2 - 4*1*(-3654) ]} / 2 =
x = 14.92
The other solution is negative so it is discarded.
Answer: 15 ft
Answer:
D 9m 4m because 9 divided by 2 is 3 and 4 divided by 2 is 2 and that's us you answer.
The answer to this question is:
x y
(1,-5) so the equation would be -5=-7+2(1)
-5=-7+2 -7+2=-5
-5=-5
hope this helps;)
Answer:
$26
Step-by-step explanation:
0.8(X - 3) = 18.4
X - 3 = 23
X = 26
So you do 20%*426 to get 85.2 then you would subtract 85.2 from 426 because they sold 20% more than last year. On top of that the answer isn't 355 it is 340.8.
