Mathematics

The number of white  sweatshirts is 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ordered black shirts be represented by b

Let ordered white shirts be represented by w

So total sweatshirts will be represented by the equation

b+w=50

The total cost of the ordered sweatshirts will be represented by

10b + 12 w= $556

For simultaneous equations as;

b+w=50

10b+12w=556

solving the equations using substitution method where b=50-w

10(50-w)+12w=556

500-10w+12w=556

-10w+12w=556-500

2w=56

w=56/2= 28

b=50-w=50-28=24

Number of white  sweatshirts  is 28

Carrie wished to build a rectangular dog run along theside of her garage. The garage will serve as one side of the fence. If she
Nat2105 [25]

Given:

Carrie has 180 ft of the fencing and wishes the fence to be 4times as long as it is wide.

To Find:

The area in square feet that the fencing encloses.

Answer:

The fence encloses 3600 sq ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denote the length of the dog run and y denote the width of the dog run.

Given that the garage wall serves as one side of the dog run, we are left with 3 other sides to instal the fence.

Carrie has 180ft of fencing with her, so the sum of the lengths of the 3 sides has to be equal to 180. We can represent this in the form of an equation as

x+y+y=180\\\\x+2y=180\\\\x=180-2y

We are also given that Carrie wishes the fence to be 4 times as long as it is wide.

So,

x=4y

Replacing this value into the first equation, we have

4y=180-2y\\\\
6y=180\\\\
y=30

Therefore,

x=(4)(30)=120

Thus, the length of the dog run is 120ft and the width is 30ft.

The area enclosed will be equal to the length multiplied with the width. So,

(120)(30)=3600

The fence encloses 3600 sq ft.

Find the length of UC on the attached diagram. Thank you!
ValentinkaMS [17]
<h2>Answer </h2>

The length of UC is 18

<h2>Explanation </h2>

First we are going to find the length of JN; then we are subtracting from it the length of JU plus the length of CN.

We can infer from our picture that JN is 82 + 105, so JN = 187

We can also infer that JU = JH + HU

                                     JU = 22 + 96

                                     JU = 118

We can also infer that CN = 51

Now we can fin the length of UC:

UC=JN-(JU+CN)

UC=187-(118+51)

UC=18

We can conclude that the length of UC is 18.
