Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Let x by the multiplying factor to make up 190 m.

2x + 5x + 3x = 190

10x = 190

x = 190/10

x = 19

The longest side is 5x

The longest side = 5 * 19 = 95

A landscaper needs 3 4/8 pounds of plant food. He has 1 1/4 pounds in his truck, and another 4/6 pound at his shop. How many mor

kow [346]

Answer:

$\frac{19}{12}\ pounds$

or

$1\frac{7}{12}\ pounds$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper

we know that

The additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper plus the pounds in his truck plus the pounds in his shop must be equal to the total pounds of plant food needed

so

The linear equation that represent this problem is

$x+1\frac{1}{4}+\frac{4}{6}=3\frac{4}{8}$

Convert mixed number to an improper fractions

$1\frac{1}{4}=1+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{4*1+1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}$

$3\frac{4}{8}=3+\frac{4}{8}=\frac{3*8+4}{8}=\frac{28}{8}=\frac{14}{4}$

Substitute in the expression above

$x+\frac{5}{4}+\frac{4}{6}=\frac{14}{4}$

solve for x

Multiply by (4*6) both sides to remove the fractions

$24x+30+16=84$

Combine like terms left side

$24x+46=84$

subtract 46 both sides

$24x=84-46$

$24x=38$

Divide by 24 both sides

$x=\frac{38}{24}\ pounds$

simplify

$x=\frac{19}{12}\ pounds$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{19}{12}\ pounds=\frac{12}{12}+\frac{7}{12}=1\frac{7}{12}\ pounds$
