Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
This is an awful question. They mean to say the number of hours practicing <em>per week</em> (we'll call it h) varies inversely with the <em>time</em> (t) she runs her event. Unless they mean to imply more practicing makes Tyler slower, in which case she should just get a pizza.
Inverse variation means the product is a constant, we'll call it k.
ht = k
When h = 1 hour t=6 minutes
(1)(6) = k
k = 6 (hour*minutes, but as long as we're consistent we don't need to sweat the unit.)
Decreasing her time by one minute means t = 6 - 1 = 5. We solve for h.
ht = k
h = k/t = 6/5 = 1.2 hours
Answer: 1.2 hours, second choice
The percentage of animal wasted is the number of animal wasted over 100
85.7% of the wild caught animals are wasted
<h3>How to calculate the animal wasted</h3>
From the question, we have:
Animals caught = 6 pounds
Salmon = 1 pound
The total weight in the system is:
Total = 6 pounds + 1 pound
So, we have:
Total = 7 pounds
The percent of wild caught animals wasted is then calculated as:
Simplify
Hence, 85.7% of the wild caught animals are wasted
