Community planners are planning to build a new community garden. They agree that the garden will be rectangular in shape, but th

e proposed dimensions changed. At the most recent meeting, it was determined that the length would remain at 15.8 yards but that the width would increase by 5.2 yards. So, the garden would now cover an area of 327.65 square yards.
Which equation can be used to determine the original width of the garden, w?
1: 327.65 = 5.2 (w + 15.8)
2: 327.65 = 15.8(w +5.2)
3: 327.65 = 2 (w +21)​

Answer:

2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original width, multiply 15.8 by w, and by 5.2.

You'll get 327.65 = 15.8w + 82.16.

Next, do the opposite of the symbol from both sides, 327.65 - 82.16 = 15.8w + 82.16.

The constant is 82.16, and the symbol is +, the opposite of plus is -, and thus subtract the constant from both sides.

You'll get 245.49 = 15.8w.

Now do the opposite of the symbol (a number next to a variable is multiplication, so do division, and divide 15.8 on both sides.

245.49/15.8 = 15.8w/15.8, which equals 15.5373417722.

Marco thinks the total number of runs a team scores in a season is a better indicator of how many wins it will have in that seas
FrozenT [24]
This is a fair assumption, but not true in every instance. Since home runs do not indicate how many runs score, which are the decider in a win or a loss, they are less accurate at predicting.

Please help I don’t wanna add a bunch of points Bc nobody is helping me I’m just wasting them.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.

x/6 = 5/1.25

let the height of building be h ft

h/6 = 60/15

h = 6(60/15) = 24

the building is 24 ft high

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)

salantis [7]

Answer:

CD= 2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = 6x-4

AC = 4x - 3

CD= AD- AC

CD=  6x-4 - (4x - 3)

CD= 6x - 4 - 4x +3

CD= 2x -1

Therefore, the value of CD= 2x-1
