Answer:

12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

base is x

one of the legs measure 4x-6

therefore, perimeter is equal to

2 (4x - 6) + x = 96

8x - 12 + x = 96

9x = 96 + 12

9x = 108

x = 108/9 = 12 units

Ruiz needs to buy a countertop for a kitchen. He calculated the area to be 16 square feet. The actual area is 15.4 square feet.
Marina86 [1]
First, subtract the two values:

16 - 15.4 = 0.6

Now divide this to the actual area:

0.6 / 15.4 = 0.038961039

Multiply by 100:

0.038961039 * 100 = 3.8961039

So the percent error is approximately 3.9%

Rhonda planted green beans on 67% of her farm. Rhonda's farm has 598 acres of land. Estimate the number of acres of green beans
Savatey [412]

Answer: 400 acres.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 598 is very close to 600, so we can round that amount up.

We also know that 67% is very close to \frac{2}{3} because 2÷3≈0.67 & 67%=0.67

So, we can estimate \frac{2}{3} of 600, which is about 400.
