Answer:

no change in area

Step-by-step explanation:

The original area is

A = 12*5 = 60 ft^2

The new length and width

l = 12 + .25 (12) = 12+3 =15

w = 5 - .2 (5) =5-1 = 4

The new area is

A = l*w =15*4 = 60 ft^2

The area is the same

What is the linear equation in two variable?

Any equation which can be put in the form ax + by + c = 0, where a, b and c are real numbers, and a and b are not both zero, is called linear equation in two variable.

<u>According to the given question</u>

A recipe require 3.5 teaspoons of sugar to make a tart.

y represents the number of teaspoons of sugar.

x represents the number of tarts.

Now, for x tart 3.5y teaspoons of sugar required.

⇒  x = 3.5y

Hence, the linear equation in two variable that shows the number of teaspoons of sugar y, needed to make x number or tarts is x = 3.5y.

There are 11 women and 9 men in a certain club. If the club is to select a committee of 2 women and 2 men, how many different su
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
We can tell it’s not a permutation because it’s picking two people. Order doesn’t matter.

The number of total possible groups of men is 9 C 2 = 9!/((9-2)!(2!)) = 36

The number of total possible groups of women is 11 C 2 = 11!/((11-2)!(2!)) = 55

55 * 36 = 1980 different groups in the committee

George works as an office clerk and his office job pays him $12 per hour. Dorothy works as a cashier and her job pays her $11.25
Phoenix [80]
You will need 2 equations, since there are 2 variables (hours worked by George and the ones of Dorothy), let's say x and y respectively

We know
x+y=48 (since they work 48 hours together) and
12x+11.25y=555 (since the sum of their respective hours multiplied by their salary gives a total of 555$)

To solve that, you can isolate either one of the variables and replace it in the second formula, for example:

x+y=48, therefore x=(48-y)
<span>Substitute x in 12x+11.25y=555 and solve for y (to find Dorothy's hours)
</span><span>12(48-y)+11.25y=555
</span>576-12y+11.25y=555
21=0.75y
y=28
