A.
The rate is 12:2
B.
Set up a proportion:
12/2 = x/5
Multiply 5 to both sides:
60/2 = x
Divide:
30 = x
So he will walk 30 miles in 5 hours.
C.
To find out, we can divide 12 / 2.
12 / 2 = 6 miles per hour
The formula for the area of a triangle is (1/2)bh = A
when we plug in the numbers, we get (1/2)(3x-1)x = A
using the distributive property we get (1.5x - .5)x = A
Then its 1.5x^2 - .5x = A
then if we factor out 0.5x we get 0.5x(3x-1) = A
then with the zero product property, 0.5x can equal 0 and x would need to equal 0.
if 3x-1 = 0 , then 3x = 1 then x = 1/3. so our answer would be 1/3 I'm pretty sure because a length cannot be 0
1/1/2 is the answer ............
Answer: The first machine would cost $420
and the second machine would cost $432
you should buy the first machine
Step-by-step explanation:If you get a 30% discount, then you are paying 70% of the selling price.
Machine 1: 600(.70) = 420
Machine 2: A 10% discount means you pay 90%
600(.90) = 540 But now you get a 20% discount on that amount, which means you would pay 80%
So, 540(.80) = 432
