A school has a parking lot that is 150.23 feet by 135.12 feet. What is the perimeter of the parking lot?

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: 570.70 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the distance around the entire parking lot.

The measurement of 150.23 ft by 135.12 ft is half of the distance of the lot because it represents just two sides yet there are 4 sides.

The other two sides have the same measurement as this is a rectangle.

The perimeter of the parking lot is:

= (150.23 * 2) + (135.12 * 2)

= 570.70 ft

Which expression has a positive quotient?

svp [43]

Answer:

Only 1st option Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds has positive quotient.

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve to find out Which expression has a positive quotient.

We know the division rule: $\frac{-a}{-b}=\frac{a}{b}$ and $\frac{-a}{b}=\frac{-a}{b}$

We will use these rules

1) Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds

$=\frac{-\frac{3}{4} }{-\frac{2}{3} }\\=-\frac{3}{4}\times -\frac{3}{2}\\=\frac{9}{8}$

The quotient is positive.

2) Negative StartFraction 1 over 8 EndFraction divided by 3 and one-fifth

$\frac{-\frac{1}{8} }{3\frac{1}{5} }\\=\frac{-\frac{1}{8} }{\frac{16}{5} }\\=-\frac{1}{18} \times \frac{5}{16}\\=-\frac{5}{288}$

The quotient is negative.

3) 2 and StartFraction 2 over 7 EndFraction divided by negative one-fifth

$\frac{2\frac{2}{7} }{-\frac{1}{5} }\\= \frac{\frac{16}{7} }{-\frac{1}{5} }\\=\frac{16}{7} \times -5\\=-\frac{80}{7}$

The quotient is negative.

4) Negative 6 divided by Five-thirds

$\frac{-6}{\frac{5}{3} }\\=-6 \times \frac{3}{5}\\=-\frac{18}{5}$

The quotient is negative.

So, only 1st option Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds has positive quotient.

Option A is correct.

The county fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides. Jermaine bought 25 tickets for the rides and spent a total of $43.75 at

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

A.)y=1.25x+12.5

B.)ridecost+admission=total

if x=number of tickets and y is total and cost per ride is 1.25,

1.25x+admission=y

when we solve

when x=25, y=43.75

Hope This Helps!!!
