Answer: F=bill for first shop=4S-$630; S=bill for second shop
.
F+S=$3265 Substitute for F
4S-$630+S=$3265
5S=$3895
S=$779 ANSWER 1: The bill for the second shop was $779
.
F=4S-$630
F=4($779)-$630
F=$3116-$630=$2486 ANSWER 2: The bill for the first shop was $2486.
.
CHECK:
F+S=$3265
$2486+$779=$3265
$3265=$3265
explanation:
The total length of the fencing is 248 ft; we call this the "perimeter" of the garden. Since P = 2W + 2L in general, here:
P = 248 ft = 2W + 2(W+6), or 248 ft = 4W + 12.
Subtracting 12 from both sides of this equation: 236 ft = 4W. Then W = 59 ft, which means that L = 65 ft.
Answer:
20 ft long; 12 ft wide
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w = the width of the garden
Then l = w + 8
A = lw
A = (w + 8)w
=====
The sidewalk is 4 ft wide, so, for the big rectangle consisting of garden plus sidewalk:
Width = w +8
Length = w + 16
Area = (w + 8)(w + 16)
=====
The <em>difference</em> between the two areas is the area of the sidewalk (320 ft²).
(w + 8)(w + 16) - (w + 8)w = 320 Factor out w + 8
(w+ 8)(w + 16 – w) = 320 Combine like terms
(w+ 8) × 16 = 320 Divide each side by 16
w + 8 = 20 Subtract 8 from each side
w = 12 ft
l = 12 + 8
l = 20 ft
The garden is 20 ft long by 12 ft wide.
