Awooden fence 4 feet high and 200 feet long is to be painted. how many gallons are needed if one gallon covers 300 square feet

gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The fence is in the shape of a rectangle, which has an area of length * height.

Length of the fence is 200 ft and height is 4 ft, so area is:

Area of fence = 200 * 4 = 800 sq. ft.

Since 1 gallon covers 300 sq. feet, we will need 800 divided by 300 gallons to cover the whole fence.

Amount of paint needed = gallons

step-by-step explanation:

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
