3. The Pacific Ocean covers about 46% of the Earth. If P represents the area of the Pacific Ocean and E represents the area of Earth, write an equation for this situation.
Â
E - 46 = P

0.46E = P
4. Mrs. Patton is planning to place a fence around her vegetable garden. The fencing costs $1.75 per yard. She buys f yards of fencing and pays $3.50 in tax. If the total cost is $73.50, how many yards of fencing does she buy?
