The area (A) of a circle with radius r is given by
... A = π·r²
For a radius of 7 ft, the area is
... A = π·(7 ft)² = 49π ft² ≈ 154 ft²
The area of the bottom of a circular tent with radius 7 ft is about 154 ft².
Let the length of the rectangle is x. units , accordingly :
2.(x+3) = x×3.
2x + 6 = 3x.
x = 6 units is the answer :)
Answer:
Holly will still pay 86% of the original price.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- Holly gets 14% off a shirt, so
To determine
What percent of the original price will still pay.
All we need is to subtract the percentage of discount from 100.
i.e.
100 - Discount = 100 - 14 = 86%
The amount left over would be what remains of the original price after Holly gets 14 % off a shirt.
Thus, Holly will still pay 86% of the original price.
Answer: <u>4 pounds</u> of brand X sugar
====================================================
Reason:
n = number of pounds of brand X sugar
5n = cost of buying those n pounds, at $5 per pound
Brand Y costs $2 per pound, and you buy 8 lbs of it, so that's another 2*8 = 16 dollars.
5n+16 = total cost of brand X and brand Y combined
n+8 = total amount of sugar bought, in pounds
3(n+8) = total cost because we buy n+8 pounds at $3 per pound
The 5n+16 and 3(n+8) represent the same total cost.
Set them equal to each other. Solve for n.
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5n+16 = 3n+24
5n-3n = 24-16
2n = 8
n = 8/2
n = 4 pounds of brand X sugar are needed
-------------
Check:
n = 4
5n = 5*4 = 20 dollars spent on brand X alone
16 dollars spent on brand Y mentioned earlier
20+16 = 36 dollars spent total
n+8 = 4+8 = 12 pounds of both types of sugar brands combined
3*12 = 36 dollars spent on both types of sugar brands
The answer is confirmed.
--------------
Another way to verify:
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5*4+16 = 3(4+8)
20+16 = 3(12)
36 = 36
