-96.875
Step-by-step explanation:
I think the answer is c -6.5<6.55
Original:
<span>The width and length of a rectangle are consecutive odd integers
</span>so W = x and L = x + 2
<span>If the length is increased by 5 feet, then new L = x + 2 + 5 = x + 7
</span>
A = L x W
60 = (x + 7) x
60 = x^2 + 7x
x^2 + 7x - 60 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 12) = 0
x = 5 and x = -12
From here you have x = W = 5 ft and L = x + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7 feet
Area of original = 5 x 7 = 35
answer
<span>the area of the original rectangle: </span>35 ft^2
Answer:
59,000 times 0.02= $1,180 commission plus $300 = $1480
In order to get your answer you have to change the percent into a decimal and it’s commission so you have to add.
Answer:
144 cloves
Step-by-step explanation:
You separate 42 bulbs of garlic into two groups:one for planting and one for cooking.
We have a ratio of planting to cooking
Planting : Cooking
You will plant 3 bulbs for every 4 bulbs that you will use for cooking.
Hence: 3 : 4
The total of their proportion = 3 + 4 = 7
Hence:
The number of garlic you plant =
3/7 × 42 = 18 bulbs of garlic
The number of garlic you use to cook =
4/7 × 42 = 24 bulbs of garlic
We are also told that:
Each bulb has about 8 cloves. How many cloves of garlic will you plant?
From the calculation above , we know the number of bulbs of garlic been planted
= 18 bulbs.
Hence:.
1 bulb = 8 cloves
18 bulbs = x
x = 8 cloves × 18 bulbs
x = 144 cloves
Therefore, you will plant 144 cloves of garlic
