Fabio and Gwen are saving money to buy a new gaming station. They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station. Gwen we
vaieri [72.5K]

x represents the number of lawns weeded by Gwen and y represents the number of dogs walked by Fabio.

Gwen charges $12 each time she weeds a yard and Fabio charges $9 each time he walks a dog.

So, for x number of weeds, Gwen earned 12x and for y number of dogs walked, Fabio earned 9y.

They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station.

Therefore,

12x + 9y ≥ 510

Also, the number of dog walks that Fabio has scheduled should not be more than twice the number of yards Gwen has scheduled to weed.

Therefore,

y ≤ 2x

Also, Fabio will walk at least 25 dogs.

Therefore,

y ≥ 25

Hence, the constraints are:

12x + 9y ≥ 510

y ≤ 2x

y ≥ 25

What is the approximate diagonal distance from one corner of a 3 inch by 5 inch index card to the opposite corner
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

5.83 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The card is a rectangular shaped object, drawing a diagonal from one corner to the other, divides the rectangle into two right angled triangles with the diagonals as the hypothenuse.

Using Pythagoras theorem.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Given;

Side a = 3

Side b = 5

Substituting the given values;

c^2 = 3^2 + 5^2

c = √(9+25)

c = √34

c = 5.83 inches
