Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let first odd number = a, second odd number = a +2, third odd number = a + 4
a + a + 2 + a + 4 = 987
3a + 6 = 987
3a = 981
a = 327
First odd number = a = 327
Second odd number = a + 2 = 329
Third odd number = a + 4 = 331
The initial dimenssions of the park lot are:
length: 140 ft
width: 90 ft
initial area: 140 * 90 = 12,600 ft^2
Area increased 29% = 12,600 * 1.29 = 16,254 ft^2
width of the strips: x
New length: 140 + x
New width: 90 + x
New area: (140+x)(90+x) = 16,254
Solution of the equation:
12600 + 230x + x^2 = 16254
=> x^2 + 230x - 3654 = 0
Use the quadratic formula.
x = {-230 +/- √[ 230^2 - 4*1*(-3654) ]} / 2 =
x = 14.92
The other solution is negative so it is discarded.
Answer: 15 ft
Answer:
Cost for 13 rides: $92
Cost for r rides: I am guessing it would be 40+4r
Step-by-step explanation:
If you automatically pay 40 dollars to get in, then that is the constant, and paying 4 dollars per ride is a coefficient, so that would be multiplied by how many rides you go on, the variable. Once you plug those into the equation above, you would get 92 dollars for the thirteen rides.
First you need to multiply the number on the outside of the parentheses to what's inside. Then you need to subtract 1440 from both sides. After that you need to get all of the u's on one side so you subtract 256u from -160u and then you divide 832 by 96.
Rounded to one decimal place means to round to the nearest tenth (i.e. to the nearest 0.1)
4.25 (rounded to the nearest tenth) = <u><em>4.3</em></u>
