Answer: 216/343 or 0.6297
Step-by-step explanation:

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 
Answer:
C. x+y = 1 and -x-y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that if a system of equations has an infinite number of solutions, then the resulting equation from using the first step of the elimination method would have no variables and would be true.
1) Let's try canceling out the equations in option C, x+y =-1 and -x-y =-1. Add the two equations together. (Work shown in attached picture.)
2) All of the terms cancel out with each other, leaving only a true statement of 0 = 0. Thus, option C is the answer.
Hi there
Part a
49.98−49.98×0.5
=24.99
Part b
49.98−10
=39.98
