Answer:

Solution: Convert the lot dimensions to feet

35 yards ×3 feet1 yard=105 feet

50 yards ×3 feet1 yard=150 feet

So the area of the entire lot is 105 feet×150 feet=15,750 square feet.

Therefore the percent of the lot NOT covered by Dana's house will be

15,750−160015,750≈0.898≈90%.

Solution: Convert the house area to square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard=3 feet,

so

1 square yard=3 feet×3 feet=9 square feet.

Therefore, Dana's house covers

1600 square feet×1 square yard9 square feet≈177.8 square yards.

On the other hand, Dana's lot is 35 yards×50 yards=1,750 yards.

The percentage of Dana's lot NOT covered by her house is:

1,750−177.81,750≈0.898≈90%

allowing 20% discount on the marked price of a watch the value of the watch will be Rs 6328 when a vat 13%is added ,find the fin
Ahat [919]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price of a watch be =₹x

∴ Discount price = x- 20% of x

= x - 0.2x

=0.8x

Amount of VAT = 13% of 0.8x

0.13 x 0.8x

0.104x

Now,

Selling price = 0.8x + 0.104x

              ∴6328 = 0.904x

x = 0.904 / 6328

x=0.00014285714

Solve for r and t:<br> 6r - 3t = 6<br> 6r + 8t = -16
MAVERICK [17]
Multiply the first equation with (-1)
you should get this

-6r + 3t = -6
6r + 8t = -16

start to eliminate

11t = -22

divide by 11

t = -2

substitute 

6r - 3(-2) = 6
6r + 6 = 6
6r = 6 - 6
6r = 0 
r=0

viva [34]

Answer:

Because 16 inches is one foot and 4 inches, as there are 12 inches in a foot. So this one foot is added to the 7 inches. Or otherwise we can say: a hundred inches (100 in).

Step-by-step explanation:

If we tell the length in feet, only the rest of the integer number of feet is expressed in inches.
