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.

4. Which of the following describes a proportional relationship?
Papessa [141]

Answer:

G. Heather rented a hotel for $110 a night plus $18 a night for valet parking

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship is one that has a constant ratio between two variables

y/x = Constant

From the given options, the one with a proportional relationship is option G.

The amount at which Heather rented a hotel = $110

The amount he pays for valet parking = $18

The total amount Heather pays a night = $110 + $18 = $128

The amount she pays for 2 nights = 2 × $128 = $256

Therefore, we have;

\begin{array}{cc}x&y\\1&128\\2&256\\3&384\end{array}

From which we get;

y/x = 128/1 = 256/2 = 128 = Constant.

You Spin a spinner it has 4 spaces. What is the probability that you spin a 3 and flipping heads
Anettt [7]

Answer:

12.5% or 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a compound probability multiply the likelihood of both events with each other.

Probability is how many things wished to be gotten over the total amount of possibilities for the event.

Spin a 3 on the spinner: 1/4 or 25% 1 space out of 4 spaces.

Flip the head side of the coin: 1/2 or 50% 1 side wish out of 2 sides.

1/4 x 1/2 = 1/8

1 divided by 8 = 0.125

0.125 x 100 = 12.5

12.5 is the the percentage.
