Answer:

3 × 8 yards

Explanation:

possible lengths & widths for the given area of 24 square yards:

1 and 24, 2 and 12, 3 and 8, 4 and 6

of these four options, only 3 and 8 fit the requirement of the length of the garden being 5 yards more than the width of the garden. thus, the answer is <u>3 × 8 yards</u>.

Elenas bed measures 3‘ x 6‘ on the scale drawing what are the actual measurements of her bed
Sonbull [250]

Using proportions, supposing a scale of 1 inch = 3 feet, the actual measurements of her bed are given by: 9 ft x 18 ft.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and equations can be built to find the desired measures in the problem using basic arithmetic operations such as multiplication or division, from the relations built in the problem.

One example of application of proportions is for scale problems, as the actual scale and the drawing length are compared to find the actual length of the object drawn.

In the context of this problem, the scale is given by:

1 inch = 3 feet.

The drawn length of the bed is given by:

3 inches x 6 inches.

Hence the actual length is given by:

9 feet x 18 feet.

As:

  • 3 x 3 = 9.
  • 6 x 3 = 18.

<h3>What is the missing information?</h3>

The scale of the drawing is missing, hence we are going to suppose that it is 1 inch = 3 feet.

statuscvo [17]

Part A)

His sample only involves days during the summer (if Devin is in the northern hemisphere), which would mean that the high temperatures he'll record are likely to be higher than the average. Therefore, the sample mean he computes does not represent the average high temperature for the whole year.

----------------------------------------

Part B)

To correct his mistake, he needs to sample every day of the year. Or he could sample a few days of each month (say the first ten days of each month). That way the entire year is better represented. The other seasons of spring, fall and winter are included now.

The Hawks are starting a babysitting business. They charge an initial deposit of $20
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation: So first you have to make this word problem into a equation into standard form so 20 is our (y) because that is the additional charge but our slope is 3 because that is what they charge per hr **when they say (per) usually the member with it is the slope** (sry I’m not the best explainer)
