Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.
Answer:
14000 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
500 * 4 = 2000
2000 * 7 = 14000
Let
x be the distance that the truck has left to travel
t be the the time
The total distance is 1675 miles
The average speed is 55 miles per hour
The equation that represents the distance that the truck has left to travel with respect to time is
55t + x =1675
x = -55t + 1675
Answer:
$55.20
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a proportion where x is the cost of 12 lbs of walnuts:
= 
Cross multiply and solve for x:
0.75x = 41.4
x = 55.2
So, for 12 lbs of walnuts, it will cost $55.20
Answer:
They traveled exactly 25% of the distance
