Let's first say that L=W+44

and then remember that perimeter is P=2L+2W

replace the L with W+44

we then get P=2(W+44)+2W, now I'll solve it

P=2W+88+2W
P=4W+88

substitute 288 for P

288=4W+88
200=4W
50=W

so now we now how wide the court is. add 44 to find the length which gives you L=94

as always plug the numbers back into your perimeter equation to ensure L and W are correct

X/2-1/5=x/3+1/4<br>solve this equation ​
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

x=\frac{27}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}

\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{x}{3}=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{x}{3}

-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{x}{6}=\frac{1}{4}

-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{x}{6}+\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}

\frac{x}{6}=\frac{9}{20}

\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{9\times \:6}{20}

x=\frac{27}{10}

Clare is paid $90 for 5 hours of work. At thos rate how many seconds does i take for her to earn 25 cents?
natka813 [3]

We are given

Clare is paid $90 for 5 hours of work

Total money paid =$90

total hours of work =5 hours

so, firstly  we will find rate of work

rate of work = ( total money paid)/( total hours of work)

now, we can plug values

and we get

The rate of work is

=\frac{90}{5}

=18 $/ hour

now, we have to find time for amount paid is 25 cents

so, amount paid =25 cents

100 cents =1$

so, amount paid =$ 0.25

Since, the rate is constant

so, we can take same rate here

now, we can use formula

rate of work = ( total money paid)/( total hours of work)

now, we can plug values

18=\frac{0.25}{T}

now, we can solve for T

T=\frac{0.25}{18} hour

since, T is in hours

so, we can change into seconds

1 hour =3600seconds

so, we can plug

T=\frac{0.25}{18}\times 3600 seconds

T=50 seconds......................Answer
