Answer:

Area of the rectangular pen is: 18 \,x-x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to specify that the perimeter of the rectangular area of side x adds to the amount of fence Pablo has (36 feet). Recall as well that the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, so if there is a side of length x, there must be another one of this size as well (a total of 2 x in the perimeter),let's assume that the perpendicular sides to x are of length y, then:

Perimeter= 2 x + 2 y = 36

so, 2 (x+y)  = 36   then  (x+y) = 18

and therefore the side y should be:

y = 18 - x

Now we can write the formula for representing the area of the rectangle (product of both quantities: x * y

Area=x\,*\,y = x\,(18-x) =18 \,x-x^2

madreJ [45]

Answer:

<h2><u>$52.5</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are given that the linear function for the cost is  c=3.5t

c is the cost and

t is the number of tickets.

We are told that t=15, to find c, let us put the value of t in the linear function for the cost

c=3.5(15)\\\\c=52.5

<u>This shows that 15 tickets will cost $52.5</u>

Diego said that the awnser to the question "How many groups of 5/6 are in 1?" Is 6/5 or 1 1/5.Do you agree with his statement? E
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Diego is correct.

He has correctly divided 1 in groups of \frac{5}{6}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question 'How many groups of 5/6 are in 1?'  means that we need to divided 1 into groups of \\frac{5}{6}.

When we form groups from a given total, we divided the total by the size of the group.

If we are dividing N number of people in groups of x number of people, then the expression to find the number of groups formed can be given as:

⇒ \frac{N}{x}

For this question the data given is:

N=1

x=\frac{5}{6}

So, the number of groups formed can be given as:

⇒ \frac{1}{\frac{5}{6}}

When divisor is a fraction, then we multiply the reciprocal of the divisor with the dividend.

⇒ 1\times\frac{6}{5}

⇒ \frac{6}{5}

In order to convert fraction to mixed number we will divide numerator with denominator and then write the quotient as whole number, remainder as numerator and the denominator remains as it is.

On dividing 6 by 5, the quotient =1 and remainder =1. Thus the mized number is:

⇒ 1\frac{1}{5}

Thus, there are \frac{6}{5} or 1\frac{1}{5} groups in 1. This matches with Diego's answer and hence he is correct.

A sea horse riding travels an average of 0.01 miles per hour. At that rate , how fast can a sea horse travel in 2.4 hours?
kondaur [170]
As for this problem, it would be best to approach this with a ratio to ratio approach. This would then involve the equation with fractions which is the common conversion from ratios to easily solve the problems concerning these. The equation then would look somehow like this:

0.01 miles / 1 hour = x miles / 2.4 hours

The easiest way would be just to multiply the numerator, which is the miles, to 2.4. So when it is multiplied to the numerator, the equation then would turn to:

0.01 miles x 2.4 / 1 hour = x miles / 2.4 hours

0.024 miles would be the answer.

Find the mean, median, mode, and range of this data: 49, 49, 54, 55, 52, 49, 55. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Zigmanuir [339]
The mean is the average.
So, to find the mean you want o add up all of the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers.

49 + 49 + 54 + 55 + 52 + 49 + 575 = 363
363 / 7 = 51.85
Rounded to 52

For the median you want o line all of your number up from least to greatest and then find the middle number.

49,49,49,52,54,55,55

Your median is 52

The mode is the number that is listed most often

49 is listed 3 times
54 is listed 1 time
52 is listed 1 time
55 is listed 2 times

So, your mode is 49
