The Distributive Property. You are distributing a to x + y.
Hope this helps!
So, Mr Yeo has 32 litres of water to begin, by taking away the 3/8 (12 litres) you get 20 litres, dividing that by 4 gives you 5litres.
Your answer is then 5 Litres
Sorry about my first answer then it would 20% because if you take 30 and divide 20% you'll get 6 so again sorry I was wrong 20 percent though is right.
Answer:
y = 2m-5
Kim's age now is y = 2m-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let m represent martas age now and y represent Kim's age now
Given;
Five years ago Kim's age was twice as great as martas age.
(y-5) = 2(m-5)
Solving for y;
y-5 = 2m-10
y = 2m-10+5
y = 2m-5
Kim's age now is y = 2m-5
Answer:
1.49 hrs or 1 hr and 30 minutes approximately
Step-by-step explanation:
if fran go 2.8m up then the river flow at a rate of 0.8m; the since we are taking the speed of fran and river to be constant. the ratio between their speed will always remain constant. that is if 0.8/2.8 = 0.286≈ this will be always constant.
so if he go up 4m then the horizontal length has to be 1.143 because 1.143/4 = 0.286.
now we find the distance between frans initial positon and final position. to find it we use pythagoras theorem.

to find the time divide distance traveled by speed;
4.160/2.8 = 1.49 hrs
