Mr.burdon has a rectangular plot of land that measures 7 1/6 feet in length and 2 8/9feet in width.what is the approximate area of mr. burdens plot

The area of a rectangle is
A = l*w
so we plug in what we are given
A = 7 1/6 * 2 8/9
First rewrite the fractions into improper fractions
43/6 * 26/9
now multiply
1118/6*9
1118/54
Simplify 
559/27
rewrite into mixed number fraction 
20 19/27 feet^2

Hope this helps :)

Since he starts with (10x+7) dollars and is buying two pairs of jeans that each cost (4x-5) dollars you should subtract the cost of the jeans from his starting amount.

(10x+7)-2(4x-5)=
10x+7-8x+10=
2x+17
