Total time spent reading is = 8/9 hour

He spends 1/4 of the time reading world news. That is =  1/4 * 8/9 =  2/9 hour

Splits the remaining time equally.  Remaining time =  8/9 - 2/9 =  6/9

Splitting it equally =  6/9  divided by 2 =  6/9  * 1/2 =  3/9  = 1/3

Time spent reading comic is = 1/3 hour

I hope this helps.

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of a segment with the given endpoints W(-12, -7), T(-8, -4)
jasenka [17]

Finding the midpoint coordinates of any segment really boils down to finding the midpoints of each individual coordinate.

The x-coordinates of the two points are -12 and -8 - the number halfway between those two is -10, so that'll be the midpoint's x-coordinate. The y-coordinates are -7 and -4 - -5.5 is halfway between these two, so the y-coordinate will be 5.5.

Putting the two together, the midpoint of the segment WT has the coordinates (-10, -5.5).

Solve x2-8x=3 by completing the square. which is the solution set of the equation
Mazyrski [523]

we have

x^{2}-8x=3

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

x^{2}-8x+16=3+16

x^{2}-8x+16=19

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x-4)^{2}=19

(x-4)^{2}=19\\ (x-4)=(+/-)\sqrt{19} \\ \\ x1=4+\sqrt{19} =8.359\\ x2=4-\sqrt{19} =-0.359

therefore

the answer is

x1=4+\sqrt{19} =8.359\\x2=4-\sqrt{19} =-0.359

On a certain hot​ summer's day, 477 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are 1.50 for children and 2.25 for ad
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

212 children, and 265 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of children and adults, we can set up a systems of equations.

x= number of children

y= number of adults

Equation 1: Price

1.50x+2.25y=914.25

Equation 2: Total number of people

x+y=477

Now, let's solve the equation using substitution.

Rearrange the second equation to solve for one variable.

x+y=477

x=477-y

Now plug x equals into the first equation, and solve for y.

1.50x+2.25y=914.25

1.50(477-y)+2.25y=914.25

715.5-1.50y+2.25y=914.25

715.5+0.75y=914.25

0.75y=198.75

y=265

We just solved for the number of adults. Now let's plug y equals into the second equation to find the number of children.

x+y=477

x+265=477

x=212

fomenos

Answer:

130/l in where l is the length of the rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of a rectangle is length by width where the width is the height of the rectangle

Given that area=130 in²

Lets assume the length of this rectangle is =l inches

Then ;

A=l*w

130 =l*w

130/l = w

130/l in = height
