0.25 is the same as 1/4 so we have to find what is 1/4 of 24.5. To find this we need to divide 24.5 by 4. 24.5 ÷ 4 = 6.125
The final answer is: The builder will use 6.125 acres for the park.
Answer:
2 x + 6 . 8 = 8 x + I . 4
8x _2x = 6.8 - 1.4
6x = 5.4
X= 0.9
2x+ 6-8= 2×0.9 + 6.8 =8.6
This is the concept of algebra, we are required to find a number,x, such that 87 decreased by three times a number is great than one hundred and sixty-five.
Supposed the number is x, three times the number will be:
3*x=3x
thus;
87-3x≥165
-3x≥165-87
-3x≥78
dividing both sides by -3 we get:
(-3x)/(-3x)≥78/(-3)
x≤-26
This implies that the number is less than or equal to 26
