Answer
We want a unit rate where
1 is in the denominator,
so we divide top and bottom by 2
3 miles ÷ 2
2 hours ÷ 2
=
1.5 miles
1 hour
=
1.5 miles
hour
= 1.5 miles per hour
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
yes its good
Answer:
Both Scott and Tara have responded correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of a trapezoid is equal to
A=(1/2)[b1+b2]h
we have
b1=16 cm
b2=24 cm
h=8 cm -----> <em>Note</em> The height is 8 cm instead of 18 cm
substitute
A=(1/2)[16+24](8)
A=160 cm²
<em>Verify Scott 's work</em>
<em>Note</em> Scott wrote A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8) instead of A = 2(24 + 16)(8)
Remember that the Commutative Property establishes "The order of the addends does not alter its result"
so
(24+16)=(16+24)
A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8)=160 cm²
<em>Verify Tara's work</em>
<em>Note</em> Tara wrote A = (1/2)(16+24)(8) instead of A = (16 + 24)(8)
A = (1/2)(16+24)(8)=160 cm²
Answer:
The equation that can be used to find the width is 2(13 + w) = 42
The width of the rectangle is 8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(l + w), where l is its length and w is its width
∵ One rectangle has a length of 13 inches
∴ l = 13 inches
∵ Its perimeter is 42 inches
∴ P = 42 inches
- Substitute the values of l and P in the formula of the perimeter
∵ 42 = 2(13 + w)
The equation that can be used to find the width is 2(13 + w) = 42
To find W divide both sides by 2
∴ 21 = 13 + w
- Subtract 13 from both sides
∴ 8 = w
The width of the rectangle is 8 inches
The answer is .35 not 3.5
