One side of a square flower bed is 8 feet long. how many plants are needed if they are to be spaced 8 inches apart around the outside of the bed?

The side is 8 feet = 8*12 inches = 96 inches

Plants are needed if they are to be spaced 8 inches apart around the outside of the bed

96/8 = 12 ... so we need 12 plants on each side, please note it is including the corners.

If we not incluse corner, the flowers will be 10 each side.

Means total flower : 10 * 4 (each side) + 4(corner)

The total needed is 44 plants. : Answer

Hope that will help :)

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
