Solve m in the proportion m 10 --- = --- 12 15

1 answer:

7 0

So you would cross multiply the numbers.
So
m x 15 and 10 x 12
It would be set up as:
15m = 120
Just divide 15 on both sides
m = 8

Brendan worked 7 11/12 hours on Saturday, on Sunday he worked 84% of the hours he worked on Saturday. How many total hours do he

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

$14\frac{17}{30}$ hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Time worked on Saturday = $7\frac{11}{12}$

Unknown:

Total hours he worked last weekend = ?

Solution:

Since Brendan worked 84% of the time he worked on Saturday on Sunday;

Time worked on Sunday = $\frac{84}{100}$ x $\frac{95}{12}$ = $\frac{133}{20}$

Total time worked last weekend = Time worked on Saturday + Time worked on Sunday;

Total time worked = $\frac{95}{12}$ + $\frac{133}{20}$

Total time worked = $\frac{475 + 399}{60}$

Total time worked = $\frac{874}{60}$

Total time worked = $\frac{437}{30}$ = $14\frac{17}{30}$ hrs

use the formula A=LW to find the length of a rectangle when the width is 29 yards and the are is 1,044 square yards. Help please

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

L = 36 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the area of a rectangle of 1044 yd², and a width of 29 yards:

Using the formula for finding the area of a rectangle, A = L × W, algebraically solve for the length (L):

A = L × W

where:

A = area of a rectangle = 1044 yd²

L = length of a rectangle

W = width of a rectangle = 29 yd

<h3><u /></h3><h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Divide both sides by W to isolate L:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{A}{W}\:=\:\frac{L\:\times\:W}{W}}$

$\displaystyle\mathsf{L\:=\frac{A}{W}}$

Substitute the values for the area and the width of a rectangle:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{L\:=\frac{1044\:yd^2}{29\:yd}}$

L = 36 yd

Therefore, the <u>length</u> of a rectangle is 36 yards.
