Answer:
20 fence posts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Calvin is building a fence. The fence will enclose a 100 square foot area, 10 ft wide by 10 ft long. Calvin can put fence posts 2 feet apart.
Now, if he puts a fence post at each corner of the building, then considering each length of the building there will be 
posts along each length.
Now, considering each width of the building there will be 
posts (excluding the corner posts) along each width.
Therefore, in total there will be (6 + 6 + 4 + 4) = 20 fence post in the total fence. (Answer)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since g(x) is f(x-2), every time there is a "x" in the f(x) equation, substitute "x-2". So g(x) would be (x-2)^2-2(x-2)+8. Use the method of trial and error: substitute x as 1,-1, and 3, until you found the right vertex. The answer is B (3,7).
Number of tacos sold is 65 and number of burritos sold is 40
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that Aiden sells each taco for $4.75 and each burrito for $7
Let the number of tacos sold be "t" and number of burritos sold be "b"
Given that Aiden sold 25 more tacos than burritos
t = b + 25 ---- eqn 1
Also given that yesterday Aiden made a total of $588.75 in revenue
number of tacos sold x cost of each tacos + number of burritos sold x cost of each burritos = 588.75
4.75t + 7b = 588.75 ----- eqn 2
Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2
4.75(b + 25) + 7b = 588.75
4.75b + 118.75 + 7b = 588.75
11.75b = 470
b = 40
Substitute b = 40 in eqn 1
t = 40 + 25
t = 65
Thus the number of tacos sold is 65 and number of burritos sold is 40
Here is the set up:
(1/4)/2 = (9/4)/y
Solve for y.
Yes, you are correct.
From the image, we can see 3 triangles, the large triangle and the two triangles that make the larger triangle.
All 3 of these triangles are similar since they're angle measurements are the same (can be proven by geometry).
We can gather the following information from the given information.
- The largest triangle (the one made up of two triangles) has a hypotenuse of 3+9=12, and a leg length of x. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is 12/x
- The second largest triangle has a hypotenuse length x and leg length 9. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is x/9
We know the hypotenuse to corresponding leg ratio must be equal since these two triangles are similar. Thus, we have the equation:
12/x = x/9
Using the cross product property gives us:
x² = 9 × 12
x² = 108
Taking the square root of both sides gives us:
x = √108
= 6 √3
Thus, your answer is correct. Great job!
