A city has 5 houses for every 8 old houses. If there are 35 new houses in the city, how many old houses are there?

Mathematics
1 answer:

8 0

Answer:

56 old houses

Step-by-step explanation:

For every 8 old houses there are 5, so there are 3 more.

For this reason, if there are 35 houses, it means that there are 5 times the houses.

So if we multiply 3 by 5 (which is the difference between old and new houses) it would give 21, which when adding it to 35 gives 56

A landscaper wants to create a 12-foot-long diagonal path through a rectangular garden. The width of the garden is x feet and th
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Width of the rectangle =  6.7 ft

length of the rectangle = 10.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is the rectangle.

AB = length of the rectangle = 4 + x ft

BC = width of the rectangle = x ft

AC = Diagonal of the rectangular field = 12 ft

Since ΔABC is the Right angle triangle. So

AC^{2} = AB^{2} + BC^{2}

12^{2} = (4 + x)^{2} + x^{2}

144 = x^{2} + 16 + x^{2} + 8 x

144 = 2x^{2} + 8x + 16

x^{2} + 4x -72 = 0

By solving above equation we get

x = 6.7 ft

Thus is the width of the rectangle.

And length of the rectangle = 4 + x

⇒ 4 + 6.7

⇒ 10.7 ft

If 1 square food of grass seed = 25cents ,then how much would grass seed cost for 55,000 square feet of grass seed
vagabundo [1.1K]
Okay. So 25 cents is expressed as 0.25. it is $0.25 for a square foot of grass seed. To find the cost for 55,000 square feet of grass seed, all you have to do is multiply the cost per square foot by the amount of square feet total. In this case, we would multiply 55,000 by 0.25. 55,000 * 0.25 is 13,750. There. The total cost would be $13,750.
