Answer:
1 2/9 minutes faster
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the larger number and subtract the smaller number
8 5/9 minutes - 7 1/3 minutes
Get a common denominator
8 5/9 - 7 1/3 *3/3
8 5/9 - 7 3/9
1 2/9 minutes faster
X=8.
Following the similarity statement, we know that AC is to DF as BC is to EF. The ratio would be:
24/(x-2) = 20/5
Cross multiply:
24*5 = 20(x-2)
Use the distributive property:
120 = 20x - 40
Add 40 to both sides:
120+40 = 20x - 40 + 40
160 = 20x
Divide both sides by 20:
160/20 = 20x/20
8 = x
7% of $5100 is 357
416.50 / 357 = 1.16
I will take 1.16 years to gain $416.50
We're going to assume that x = # of days.
Plug 12 in as x:
4 × 12 = 48
48 + 6 = 54
They produced 54 boats in 12 days.
