First identify and label any variable(s) in this problem.
(Diagram not drawn to scale.) Then write an equation(s) and show
how to solve it algebraically. Be prepared to show your work.
A right triangular (artificial) pond is part of a city
landscape. The shorter leg is ¼ times as long as the longer leg.
How far will a duck walk from one end of the longer leg to the
other if the area on the surface of the pond is 3,000 sq. feet?
Enter the value of the answer in the first blank and enter the
units in the second. Enter your answer in decimal form. Round to
the nearest tenth if rounding is necessary. Enter units as ft.,
square ft., or cubic ft.
The duck will walk along the longer leg for (about) .

You sell lemonade for 25 cents per glass. You invested $5.00 in the ingredients. Write a formula that gives the profit P=P(n) as a function of the number n of glasses you sell.

a) P(n) = 5n + 25
b) P(n) = 0.25n - 5
c) P(n) = 0.25n - 500
d) P(n) = 25n - 5
e) P(n) = 0.25n + 5
