Answer:

2323

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the questions above, the report from the traffic jam says the traffics jam stretches for 5.5 miles

As Connor assumes that each car is about 12.5 long

The next step is to convert 5.5 miles into feet.

Since 1 mile = 5280

To convert 5.5 miles, 5.5 x 5280 = 29040 feet  

To find the numbers of cars struck in traffic, we will have to divide 29040 by 12.5

29040/12.5 = 2323.3 ≅ 2323

The length of a rectangle is 5 inches longer than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 inches. What is the width of t
tangare [24]

Answer: 7.5"

Step-by-step explanation:

First, take away the extra 5" on the longer side lengths

40-5-5=30

Then divide by 4 to get the width

30/4=7.5

This works because if you took the 7.5" and added back the 5 inches, it makes 12.5. Then add all 4 sides together, you get 40.

7.5+7.5+12.5+12.5=
