Answer:

The equation representing the situation is;

36 = 3·y + 4·x

Step-by-step explanation:

The structures the gardener is planning to build = Equally-sized sections of flower bed

The length of wood the gardener has to surround both gardens = 36 feet

The perimeter of the entire garden, P = 2·y + 2 × 2·x

The length of the wood separating the two gardens = The length of the side 'y'

The perimeter of the garden and the length of the fence separating the two gardens = P + y = 2·y + 2 × 2·x + y = 3·y + 4·x

Therefore the length of wood available, 36 feet, will be used for a length equivalent to P + y

∴ 36 = P + y = 3·y + 4·x

∴ 36 = 3·y + 4·x

The equation representing the situation is 36 = 3·y + 4·x.

The square below represents one whole.

Answer:

\text{Shaded area as fraction}=\frac{81}{100}

\text{Shaded area as decimal}=0.81

\text{Shaded area as percent of the whole}=81\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the attached image as the given square.

We are asked to express the shaded area as a fraction, a decimal, and a percent of the whole.

We can see that in our figure there are 100 squares as there are 10 rows and each row contains 10 squares.

We can also see that there are 81 shaded squares out of 100 squares, so we can represent it as a fraction as:

\frac{\text{Shaded squares}}{\text{Total squares}}

\text{Shaded area as fraction}=\frac{81}{100}

To convert the shaded area into decimal, we need to divide 81 by 100.

\text{Shaded area as decimal}=0.81

To convert the shaded area into percent, we need to multiply 0.81 by 100.

\text{Shaded area as percent of the whole}=0.81\times 100\%

\text{Shaded area as percent of the whole}=81\%

95 - 3/4 what is the value of the expression
natulia [17]

Answer:377 /4  = 94 and 1 / 4  =94.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract

95 − 3 /4

 = 377 / 4

Convert integer to fraction

95 = 95 / 1

Find common denominator

95 over 1

 

− 3 over 4

= ( 95 × 4 ) over ( 1 × 4 )

 − ( 3 × 1 ) over ( 4 × 1 )

= 380 over 4

 − 3 over 4

4 is the least common multiple of denominators 1 and 4. Use it to convert to equivalent fractions with this common denominator.

Subtract

380 over 4

− 3 / 4

 

= ( 380 − 3 ) / 4

= 377 /4

Simplify

377 / 4

= 94 and 1 /494

Reduce fraction to lowest terms

1 is the greatest common divisor of 377 and 4. The result can't be further reduced.

Step 2 of 2: Simplify, sub-step b: Convert improper fraction to mixed number.

Convert improper fraction to mixed number

377 /4

= 94 1 /4

377 ÷ 4 = 94 remainder 1
