Answer:
1.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Bob wants to plant a 7 foot by 10 foot garden.
Area =
square feet
He wants to make a uniform border of petunias around the outside and still have 28 square feet to plant tomatoes and roses in the middle.
Means we have to factor 28 in a way that the length and width is less than 10 and 7.
28 = 2 x 2 x 7
Means 4 feet can be width and 7 feet the length of the area where tomatoes need to be planted.
So, we have
feet less than outer garden means at each side
feet decreases.
Similarly, we have
feet less width and at each side it is 1.5 feet.
Therefore, the border of petunias will be 1.5 feet wide on all sides.
Add all the numbers together and the difference is the answer which is 44%
Given the equation p = 3(s + 100)/4
Where,
p = profit made
s = sales
Solving for s from the given equation
p = 3(s + 100)/4
Multiply both sides by 4
4p = 3(s + 100)
4p = 3s + 300
Subtract 300 from both sides of the equation
4p – 300 = 3s
Same as, 3s = 4p – 300
s = (4p – 300)/3
OR, s = 4p/3 – 100
If any of these two is in the options, it’s the right answer.
The answer is 19 because 11+8 equals 19. Lol, hope I helped. :)
