Answer:

70 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called inverse proportion.

1hr : 14in

x hr : 12in

Ask yourself, what do you do to 14 to get 12? To find this out, we do:

14 / 12 = 1.16666667

Since the blade is smaller, it will take longer. So, we times 1hr by 1.16666667 to get

1.16666667 hrs =

1.17 hours (rounded)

This is 70.2 mins, or 1hr 10 mins

Hope this helps!

If the time taken by 14 inches wide is one hour then the blade of 12 inches wide will take 1 hour 17 minutes to mow a lawn.

What is width?

The width of something is the measurement of one side of a body. It is generally less than length of that body or shape.

How to calculate time?

We have been given time of 1 hour if blade is 14 inches wide and we have to calculate time taken by 12 inches wide blade:

It will be as 14/12* 1 hour

=14/12

=1.167

=1.17 hour

Hence the time taken by the blade of 12 inches wide will be 1 hour and 17 minutes.

The width of a rectangle is 4n-8.5 feet and the length is 8.5n+9 feet. Find the perimeter of the rectangle

Eva8 [605]

Answer: P = 25n + 35

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of length and width.

P = 2(l +w)

P = 2((8.5n+9) + (4n +8.5))

P = 2(12.5n +17.5)

P = 25n + 35

Answer:

Move downward by 7 units

Move leftward by 6 units

$(x,y) \to (x -6,y-7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for grid

Required

The transformation from the current location to the new location

To do this, we pick two corresponding points on the current location and the new location.

We have:

$A = (3,2)$ -- Current location

$A' = (-6,-5)$ -- New location

First, move A downwards by 7 units.

The rule to this is:

$(x,y) \to (x,y-7)$

So, we have:

$(3,2) \to (3,2-7)$

$(3,2) \to (3,-5)$

Next, move the above points leftward by 6 units.

The rule to this is:

$(x,y) \to (x-6,y)$

So, we have:

$(3,-5) \to (3-6,-5)$

$(3,-5) \to (-3,-5)$
