Answer:
40/42 = 20/21
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
60 minutes is 20% of 300 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the number of total minutes
60 = 20% of x
20% = 1/5
60 = 1/5x
multiply both sides by 5
300 = x
x = 300 minutes
Answer:
0 = a
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do is subtract 5 from both sides.
a + 5 = 5a + 5
- 5 - 5
The 5's cancel out.
Now we have a + 0 = 5a
You next subtract the a from both sides.
a + 0 = 5a
-a -a
0 = 4a
Lastly would to get a by itself so then we divide 4 from both sides
0 = 4a
_ _
4 4
0 = a
Answer: width = 10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = length × width
Let l be length and w be width
l = w + 4 ........equation (1)
From above formula
140 = l × w. ........equation (2)
Substitute equation (1) into equation (2)
140 = (w+4) × w
w^2 + 4w= 140
w^2 + 4w - 140= 0
By factorization method
(w+14)(w-10)= 0
w=-14 or w= 10
So now width is 10 ft
From equation(1)
l=w+4
l= 10+4
l= 14 ft
Width = 10 ft and length = 14 ft
