Answer:
Luis’s, because he flipped the inequality sign when he subtracted
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
7.2b + 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1.
Amelia started by subtracting 7.2b from both sides to get 6.5 > –2.4b – 8.1.
Amelia:
7.2b + 6.5 - 7.2b > 4.8b – 8.1 - 7.2b
6.5 > -2.4b - 8.1
Correct
Luis started by subtracting 4.8b from both sides to get 2.4b + 6.5 < – 8.1.
7.2b + 6.5 - 4.8b > 4.8b – 8.1 - 4.8b
2.4b + 6.5 > -8.1
Incorrect
Shauna started by subtracting 6.5 from both sides to get 7.2b > 4.8b – 14.6
7.2b + 6.5 - 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1 - 6.5
7.2b > 4.8b - 14.6
Correct
Clarence started by adding 8.1 to both sides to get 7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b.
7.2b + 6.5 + 8.1 > 4.8b – 8.1 + 8.1
7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b
Correct
Answer: 112.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The question really is asking whats 45% of 250
1. Calculate 10% of the total
2. Calculate 5% of the total
3. Solve for 40% of the total
4. Add 5% of the total
1. 10% of 250
250 = 100%
*divide both sides by 10*
25 = 10%
2. 5% of 250
25 = 10%
*divide both sides by 2*
12.5 = 5%
3. 40% of 250
10% + 10% + 10% + 10% = 40%
25 + 25 + 25 + 25 = 40%
50 + 50 = 40%
100 = 40%
4. 45% of 250
100 = 40%
12.5 = 5%
100 + 12.5 = 40% + 5%
<em>112.5 = 45%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there! Thank you for asking your question here at Brainly. I will be assisting you today with answering this problem, and will be teaching you how to deal with it on your own in the future.
First, let's take a look at our question, and evaluate it.
"The area of a rectangular patio is 5 5/8 square yards, and it's length is 1 1/2 yards. What is the patio's width in yards?"
To clarify this problem, we are looking for the patio's width.
Let's first understand what the area of a rectangular shape is.
The formula for the area of a rectangle is "Length times Width", or "L • W".
So this is how the equation should look like:
A = L • W
We have our area, 5 5/8, and we have our length, 1 1/2.
To make things more simple, let's convert our fractions to decimals. Now, to convert our fractions to decimals, let's set our denominators (the numbers on the bottom of a fraction) equal to another fraction, with x as the numerator (the numbers on the top of a fraction) and 100 as the denominator.
So we have 1/2 and x/100. Divide 100 by 2 to find x (as 1/2 of anything is dividing by 2).
100 / 2 = 50, so 1 1/2 = 1.50 as a decimal.
Now, let's try 5/8.
1/8 = 0.125, so multiply 0.125 by 5.
0.125 • 5 = 0.625.
5 5/8 = 5.625 as a decimal.
So, now we have our equation:
A = L • W
Plug in our numbers.
5.625 = 1.50x
To isolate and solve for x, we need to divide both sides by 1.50, so let's do that.
5.625 / 1.50 = 3.75
1.50x / 1.50 = x
We are now left with:
x = 3.75
Your answer is:
The patio's width is 3.75 yards.
I hope this helps!
The area is 120/(1/4) or 120 x 4 or 480 square inches
the width is 6/(1/2) or 6 x 2 or 12 inches
to find the length, divide the area by the width
480/12= 40
40 inches
Hope this helps :)
