+8 I have a field total 25740 sq mtrs
I need to divide it into 7 plots
Plots 1 to 4 are to be equal in surface area
Plots 1 & 2 combined or 4 & 5 combined are obviously the same.
However plots 5, 6 & 7 are equal in surface area also and equate to the total area of plots 1 & 2 combined or 3 & 4 combined.
What is the actual individual surface area of plots 1,2 & 3 and 4,5,6 & 7
Or can you give me the formula
Thank you in anticipation
+8 If you meant that plot 1 + plot 2 is equal to plot 3 + plot 4, then this is what I got.
Since plots 1-4 are all equal, I made them one variable, x. Since plots 5-7 are all equal I also made them a variable, y. I then made some base formulas based off of the info.
1: 4x+3y=25740
2: 2x=3y
I then solved for x on the second equation and got x=(3/2)y. Using this new equation, I plugged it into the x value for the first formula. Now you only have one variable, so you can solve for y. After I did this, I got y=2860. Then I plugged y into the first formula and solved for x this time. I got x=4290. I checked my answers and this should be right if the information I used was correct.
So therefore...
Plot 1 = 4290
Plot 2 = 4290
Plot 3 = 4290
Plot 4 = 4290
Plot 5 = 2860
Plot 6 = 2860
Plot 7 = 2860
This isn't propotional, but heres a visual for the x's and the y's
|
x (4290)
| x (4290) | x (4290) | x (4290) |
|
y (2860)
| y (2860) | y (2860) |
