Answer:

L = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the Length x and width x - 15 since the width is 15 less than length

Eric needs 70 of fencing in total, the perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding all sides

x + x + (x - 15) + (x - 15) = 70 add like terms

4x - 30 = 70 add 30 to both sides

4x = 100 divide both sides by 4

x = 25

<u>Answer </u><u>:</u>

<u>Given </u><u>:</u>

  • The shape of the yard is rectangular
  • Width is 15 yards less than the length
  • Total fencing required is 70 feet

<u>To </u><u>find </u><u>:</u>

  • Appropriate equation
  • Dimensions

<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

We know that for fencing we need to find the perimeter ,

  • Perimeter of a rectangle
  • => 2 ( length + breadth )

Let us assume the value of length be x yards

  • Width = x - 15 yards

Solving the question we get ,

  • 2 ( x + ( x - 15 ) ) = 70
  • 2 ( x + x - 15 ) = 70
  • 2 ( 2x - 15 ) = 70
  • 4x - 30 = 70
  • 4x = 100
  • \sf\implies\:x\:=\:\dfrac{100}{4}
  • x = 25

Length = 25 yards

Breadth = 25 - 4

  • 21 yards

How do i figure out 9 1/6 - 8 5/6<br> and 10 3/4 - 6 4/4?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

1) 9\frac{1}{6}-8\frac{5}{6}=\frac{1}{3}

2) 10\frac{3}{4}-6\frac{4}{4}=3\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

You can convert he mixed numbers to improper fractions:

1. Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction.

2. Add the product obtained to the numerator.

3. The denominator does not change.

Then:

9\frac{1}{6}=\frac{54+1}{6}=\frac{55}{6}\\\\8\frac{5}{6}=\frac{48+5}{6}=\frac{53}{6}\\\\10\frac{3}{4}=\frac{40+3}{4}=\frac{43}{4}\\\\6\frac{4}{4}=\frac{24+4}{4}=\frac{28}{4}

Observe that, in each subtraction, the denominators are equal, then you can rewrite the denominator and subtract the numerators:

1)\ \frac{55}{6}-\frac{53}{6}=\frac{55-53}{6}= \frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3} \\\\2)\ \frac{43}{4}-\frac{28}{4}=\frac{43-28}{4}= \frac{15}{4}

Divide 15 by 4. The quotient will be 3 and the remainder 3.

Then:

\frac{15}{4}=3\frac{3}{4}

morpeh [17]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2=100-36

a^2=64

a=square root of 64
