Answer:

Length :

12

feet

Width :

10

feet

Explanation:

Let the length of the garden be

x

feet.

Therefore, the breadth or width of the garden is

(

x

−

2

)

feet.

So, According to the problem,

x

(

x

−

2

)

=

120

⇒

x

2

−

2

x

=

120

⇒

x

2

−

2

x

−

120

=

0

[Transposing 120 to the L.H.S]

⇒

x

2

+

10

x

−

12

x

−

120

=

0

[Breaking

−

x

as

10

x

−

12

x

]

⇒

x

(

x

+

10

)

−

12

(

x

+

10

)

=

0

[Taking the like terms aside]

⇒

(

x

+

10

)

(

x

−

12

)

=

0

[Completing the factorisation]

We know, When two real quantities are multiplied and the product is zero, then one of them or both of them should be zero.

So, Either

x

+

10

=

0

or

x

−

12

=

0

So,

x

=

−

10

or

12

As

x

indicates length,

x

can't be negative.

So,

x

=

12

.

So, The length of the garden is

12

feet and the width of the garden is

(

12

−

2

)

feet =

10

feet.

Sofia is working two summer jobs, making $12 per hour babysitting and making $8 per hour clearing tables. In a given week, she c
Mamont248 [21]

The possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2, 3 hours

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

Amount earned in babysitting = $ 12 per hour

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

In a given week, she can work a maximum of 17 total hours and must earn a minimum of $180

Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Therefore,

Amount earned at babysitting = 14 x 12 = 168

Thus, Sofia earned $ 168 at babysitting

Sofia must earn a minimum of $ 180

Remaining amount to be earned = 180 - 168 = 12

Thus, Sofia must earn $ 12 from clearing tables

Amount earned in clearing tables = $ 8 per hour

So, she must work for atleast 1.5 hours to get $ 12 from clearing tables

She can work a maximum of 17 total hours and Sofia worked 14 hours babysitting

Remaining is 17 - 14 = 3 hours

Thus possible values for the number of whole hours clearing tables that she must work to meet her requirements is 2 hours or 3 hours

Please help me I need it done by towmorrow
musickatia [10]

Answer:

1. 12 inches are in 1 foot, 48 inches of ribbon divided by 12 is 4 feet of ribbon.

2. Since there are 12 inches in 1 foot you multiply by 3 to 12 inches for 36 inches of ribbon.

3. When you're finding inches you need to divide but when you're finding feet you need to multiply.

4. His library card is 80 millimeters and since there are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter you divide 80 by 10 to get 8 centimeters

5. His key chain is 35 millimeters long.

6. 3 quarts is bigger than 5 pints by 2 cups.

Picture contains the work you should show for questions 5 and 6.

Find the scale ratio for the map described below. 1 mm ​(map) equals 500 m ​(actual) The scale ratio is 1 to nothing.
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

1:500000

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mm ​(map) equals 500 m ​(actual) .

Let's convert 500 m to mm.

1m = 1000mm

500m = 500000 mm

So 1mm to 500000mm on a scale is

1:500000

So it's all about converting the metre to million metre then doing the ratio.

In this case we are not to divide anything because it's already in 1.

So it's 1mm on paper then 500000mm on actual.

Thank you
