Answer:

C. $\frac{27}{225}=\frac{b}{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of black ribbons one would have subtract the amount of red ribbons from the total number of ribbons. Then one would have to express it as a proportion. Part over whole equals percent over 100. The number of black ribbons over total ribbons equals "b" over 100.

A rectangular swimming pool is twice as long as it is wide. A small concrete walkway surrounds the pool. The walkway is a 2 feet

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

The width and the length of the pool are 12 ft and 24 ft respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length (L) of the rectangular swimming pool is twice its wide (W):

$L_{1} = 2W_{1}$

Also, the area of the walkway of 2 feet wide is 448:

$W_{2} = 2 ft$

$A_{T} = W_{2}*L_{2} = 448 ft^{2}$

Where 1 is for the swimming pool (lower rectangle) and 2 is for the walkway more the pool (bigger rectangle).

The total area is related to the pool area and the walkway area as follows:

$A_{T} = A_{1} + A_{w}$ (1)

The area of the pool is given by:

$A_{1} = L_{1}*W_{1}$

$A_{1} = (2W_{1})*W_{1} = 2W_{1}^{2}$ (2)

And the area of the walkway is:

$A_{w} = 2(L_{2}*2 + W_{1}*2) = 4L_{2} + 4W_{1}$ (3)

Where the length of the bigger rectangle is related to the lower rectangle as follows:

$L_{2} = 4 + L_{1} = 4 + 2W_{1}$ (4)

By entering equations (4), (3), and (2) into equation (1) we have:

$A_{T} = A_{1} + A_{w}$

$A_{T} = 2W_{1}^{2} + 4L_{2} + 4W_{1}$

$448 = 2W_{1}^{2} + 4(4 + 2W_{1}) + 4W_{1}$

$224 = W_{1}^{2} + 8 + 4W_{1} + 2W_{1}$

$224 = W_{1}^{2} + 8 + 6W_{1}$

By solving the above quadratic equation we have:

W₁ = 12 ft

Hence, the width of the pool is 12 feet, and the length is:

$L_{1} = 2W_{1} = 2*12 ft = 24 ft$

Therefore, the width and the length of the pool are 12 ft and 24 ft respectively.

I hope it helps you!

Q: using the Substitution Method, and the value ory in

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To properly apply the substitution method, it will be better for us to rearrange the system of equations to have similar variables on the same side

$44 - 4 = -2y ----equation 1$

$10 = 7x + 4y --- equation 2$

We can simply evaluate equation 1 to have

$40 = -2y\\y = 40/-2 = -20\\$

y = -20

From the first equation alone, we can evaluate the value of y as -20. This is because only one unknown is present in equation one, hence a single equation is sufficient enough to evaluate it. If to unknowns were present, the two equations would have been utilized to evaluate the solution.
