Find how much it grew:

53 - 20 = 33 inches.

Divide the amount it grew by the original length

33/20 = 1.65

Subtract 1:

1.65 - 1 = 0.65

Multiply by 100 for percent:

0.65 x 100 = 65%

The percent increase is 65%

A rectangular garden measures 25ft by 38ft. Surrounding (and bordering) the garden is a path 2ft wide. Find the area of this pat

lesya [120]

So as the path adds an extra 2 feet to each side I would start this by adding two feet to each part (so 25+2 x 38+2) which leaves you with 27ft by 40ft. Multiply to find this total area, which results in 1080. Now, you want to remove the actual area of the garden itself as this is not part of the path. So 25x38=950. Subtract 1080 by 950. This gives you just the area of the gardens path which would be $130 feet^{2}$

a car starts from rest and travels for 5.0s with a uniform acceleration of 1.5 m/s^2. what is the final velocity of the car? how

AfilCa [17]

V = u + at
u = 0
v = 0 + 1.5*5
v = 7.5 m/s
final velocity is 7.5 m/s

s = ut + 0.5at^2
s = 0 + (0.5*1.5*5^2)
s = (0.5*1.5*25)
s = 18.75 m
total travel distance is 18.75 m.
