Answer:
240 houses
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of streets = 4
Length of each street = 3/4 miles long
Street is divided into lots with one house built per lot
1 mile = 5289 feets
3/4 miles = (3/4) * 5280 = 3960 feets
Hence, street is 3960 feets long
Since each lot must have at least 65 feet frontage along the street:
Number of lots per street :
Length of street / frontage length
3960 ft / 65 ft = 60.92
Hence, maximum number of lots per street = 60 lots per street
Maximum number of houses in New neighborhoods :
Number of lots per street × number of streets
= 60 × 4
= 240 houses

Answer:
- red division: 6 teams
- blue division: 5 teams
Step-by-step explanation:
We can let r and b represent the numbers of teams in the red and blue divisions, respectively. The total number of goals scored in each division will be the average for that division times the number of teams in that division.
r - b = 1 . . . . . . there is 1 more red team than blue
4.5r +4.2b = 48 . . . . . . total goals scored per week
__
Solving by substitution, we have ...
r = b +1
4.5(b +1) +4.2b = 48 . . . . substitute for r
8.7b +4.5 = 48 . . . . . . . . simplify
8.7b = 43.5 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4.5
b = 43.5/8.7 = 5 . . . . . divide by 8.7
r = b +1 = 6 . . . . . . . . . find r
There are 6 red teams and 5 blue teams.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The basic idea is that you make an equation for each relation given in the problem statement. For a problem like this, you do need to have an understanding of how the average number of goals would be calculated and how that relates to the total goals.
1.7 as a fraction is 17/10
1.(7) the 7 in the parentheses represents the number after the decimal, which is in the tenths spot. 10 tenths + 7 tenths = 17/10 <-- our answer.
