To fond the area need to be grassed, find the area of the yard and subtract the area of the pool/patio.
(3x - 5)(4x - 10) =
12x^2 - 30x - 20x + 50 = 12x^2 - 50x + 50 Area of yard
(x + 8)(x - 2) =
x^2 - 2x + 8x - 16 = x^2 + 6x - 16 Area of pool/patio
12x^2 - 50x + 50
- ( x^2 + 6x - 16)
---------------------------
11x^2 - 56x + 66 ft^2 LETTER D
Ducks have 1 head. Dogs have 1 head.
Ducks have 2 feet. Dogs have 4 feet.
If x = no. of ducks and g = no. of dogs
x + g = 25
2x + 4g = 80
Let's use substitution to solve.
x + g = 25 ⇒ x = 25 - g
replace x with 25 - g in the other equation and solve for g
2x + 4g = 80
2(25 - g) + 4g = 80
50 - 2g + 4g = 80
50 + 2g = 80
2g = 30
g = 15
Now use g = 15 in an earlier equation to find x.
x + g = 25
x + 15 = 25
x = 10
Answer:
$180
Step-by-step explanation:
Well because it is $27 per hour, you can start with the whole hours:
6*27=162
then because you are working with fractions you can find what 1/3 of 27 is:
27* (1/3)=9
this tells us that one-third of an hour is worth 9 dollars but because it is 2/3 then you just add another 9. This means 2/3 of 27 is 18.
Then you just add it all up:
162+18=180
Y = -7x + 2
y = 9x - 14
-7x + 2 = 9x - 14
14 + 2 = 9x + 7x
16 = 16x
1 = x
y = -7x + 2
y = -7(1) + 2
y = -7 + 2
y = -5
solution is : (1,-5) <==
