Answer: Avery's bottle holds 300 milliliters. If Dashawn's container holds 3/4 as much, then his container can hold 225 milliliters. Added together, both containers can hold 525.
Step-by-step explanation: 3/4 of 300 is 225. 300 + 225 = 525.
Answer:
x = 7/3
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 2 = x + 3 + 2
4x - 2 = x + 5
Rearranging the terms, we get,
4x - x = 5 + 2
3x = 7
x = 7/3
Hence, x = 7/3.
It would b 9 x (-3^(x-1))
Answer:
20 ft long; 12 ft wide
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w = the width of the garden
Then l = w + 8
A = lw
A = (w + 8)w
=====
The sidewalk is 4 ft wide, so, for the big rectangle consisting of garden plus sidewalk:
Width = w +8
Length = w + 16
Area = (w + 8)(w + 16)
=====
The <em>difference</em> between the two areas is the area of the sidewalk (320 ft²).
(w + 8)(w + 16) - (w + 8)w = 320 Factor out w + 8
(w+ 8)(w + 16 – w) = 320 Combine like terms
(w+ 8) × 16 = 320 Divide each side by 16
w + 8 = 20 Subtract 8 from each side
w = 12 ft
l = 12 + 8
l = 20 ft
The garden is 20 ft long by 12 ft wide.
