Answer:
56ft^2

Explanation:
First the area of the rectangle is 24ft^2.

Then, if you draw it out, you get that the area WITH the sidewalk is 80ft^2

Subtract the area values to get the sidewalk area by its self:
80-24= 56ft^2 let me know if this helped!

John drove 450 miles in 8 hours. he averaged 50 miles per hour on the highway and 60 miles per hour on the turnpike. how many ho

Alexeev081 [22]

Total distance John drove=450 miles
total time=8 hours
let the number of hours he drove on highway be x, number of hours he drove on turnpike will be (8-x) hours
since
distance=speed*time
distance traveled in highway=50x
distance traveled in turnpike=60(8-x)
thus the total distance will be:
50x+60(8-x)=450
simplifying the above
50x+480-60x=450
-10x=450-480
-10x=-30
thus
x=3 hours
Thus he drove on highway for 3 hours.
