These questions are all of the same type: division. They ask to find how many of a number can fit in another number.
As for question 5, there are 42 pounds of dog food, and 
pound of dog food is used for each feeding. To find the number of times Mr. Lash can feed his animals, divide 42 by . The answer is 48.
Solving the rest of the questions by this method, here are the answers. If you wish you can do them yourself to verify your understanding.
6) 12
7) 4
8) 8
9) 2
Note: in question 9, the question is in reverse order compared to the other questions.
Are there options for this question? Maybe use the point slope formula
If the width of the garden is w, then the maximum area available is a square, giving you w² as the dimensions. So:
w²=-w²+28w
2w²=28w
w=14
The perimeter is 14 x 4, or 56 feet

Solution:
Given that the point P lies 1/3 along the segment RS as shown below:
To find the y coordinate of the point P, since the point P lies on 1/3 along the segment RS, we have
Using the section formula expressed as
![[\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7Bmx_2%2Bnx_1%7D%7Bm%2Bn%7D%2C%5Cfrac%7Bmy_2%2Bny_1%7D%7Bm%2Bn%7D%5D)
In this case,
where
Thus, by substitution, we have
![\begin{gathered} [\frac{1(2)+2(-7)}{1+2},\frac{1(4)+2(-2)}{1+2}] \\ \Rightarrow[\frac{2-14}{3},\frac{4-4}{3}] \\ =[-4,\text{ 0\rbrack} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%282%29%2B2%28-7%29%7D%7B1%2B2%7D%2C%5Cfrac%7B1%284%29%2B2%28-2%29%7D%7B1%2B2%7D%5D%20%5C%5C%20%5CRightarrow%5B%5Cfrac%7B2-14%7D%7B3%7D%2C%5Cfrac%7B4-4%7D%7B3%7D%5D%20%5C%5C%20%3D%5B-4%2C%5Ctext%7B%200%5Crbrack%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Hence, the y-coordinate of the point P is
