Answer:

120ft and 240ft

Step-by-step explanation:

720 = 2L + 2W

Since L = 2W, we get

720 = 2(2W) + 2W

6W = 720

W = 120

L = 2W = 2(120) = 240

The dimensions of the yard are 120 feet and 240 feet

In august the simons water bill was $48.in September it was 15% lower . What was the simons water bill in September

slega [8]

Water bill of Simons in the month of August = $48
Percentage of bill that was lower in the month of September = 15%
then
Amount of bill that was lower in the month of September = (15/100) * 48
   = 720/100 dollars
   = 7.2 dollars
So
The bill for the month of September = (48 - 7.2) dollars
      = 40.8 dollars
So Simon will have to pay $40.8 as the water bill for the month of September. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

John has a boat that will travel at the rate of 15 kph in still water. He can go upstream for 35 km in the same time it takes to

Otrada [13]

Answer:

The boat traveling at 24 kph when John goes downstream.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

John has a boat that will travel at the rate of 15 kph in still water.

Let x be the speed of the current.

Speed of boat in upstream

$(15-x)\text{ kph}$

Speed of water in downstream

$(15+x)\text{ kph}$

Relation:

$\text{Speed} = \dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$

We have to find the speed of boat in downstream.

Time to travel upstream for 35 km = Time to travel 140 km downstream

$\displaystyle\frac{35}{15-x}=\frac{140}{15+x}\\\\35(15+x) = 140(15-x)\\525 + 35x = 2100 - 140x\\175x = 1575\\x = 9$

Thus, speed of current is 9 kph.

Speed of boat in downstream = 15 + 9 = 24 kph.

Thus, the boat traveling at 24 kph when John goes downstream.
