Answer:

The two expression to represent area is (5 x - 10) sq. units or 5( x- 2) sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the length of the rectangle = (x-2) units

The width of the rectangle = 5 units

Now, AREA OF A RECTANGLE = LENGTH x WIDTH

So, here AREA = 5 ( x- 2)

= (5 x - 10) sq. units

( as by Distributive property: A (B-C) = AB - AC)

Hence, the two expression to represent area is (5 x - 10) sq. units or 5( x- 2) sq. units

Ben has a part time job at the fun station. Suppose he worked 13.5 hours last week and $81. How much does Ben earn per hour

scoundrel [369]

To get the answer, you will just use this operation: Division.

Circumference + perimeter =38
x = circumference of circle
find r in terms of x
2 $\pi$ r=x
r= $\frac{x}{2 \pi }$
Area= $\pi$ r^2
so..
A= $\pi$ ( $\frac{x}{2 \pi }$ )^2
= $\pi$ ( $\frac{x^{2} }{4 \pi ^{2} }$ )
= $\frac{x^{2} }{4 \pi }$

(38-x) is perimeter
then
$\frac{38-x}{4}$
( $\frac{38-x}{4}$ )^2
$\frac{x^{2} }{4 \pi }$ + ( $\frac{38-x}{4}$ )^2
then you graph it and it equals
16.716 cm the circumference of the circle

What is the median of 76, 84, 93, 67, 82, 87, and 76?

Ahat [919]

The median of a set of numbers is the midpoint of the set if you were to organize the numbers from least to greatest or greatest to least. So, all we have to do is rearrange the numbers from least to greatest and find the midpoint:
67 76 76 82 84 87 93
count 3 in from both sides and the remaining number is 82, which is the median.

How can you tell when a pattern shows counting on by tens?

velikii [3]

Answer:
The difference between successive terms is 10

Explanation:
To know the factor by which a certain pattern is increasing/decreasing, you need to subtract its successive terms.

If the subtraction gives you 10, this means that the pattern is increasing by 10

Examples:
10, 20, 30, 40, 50, .....
20 - 10 = 10
30 - 20 = 10
40 - 30 = 10
50 - 40 = 10
The difference between each two successive terms is 10. This means that each time we add 10 to the number we have in order to get the next one.
Therefore, this pattern is increasing by 10

37, 47, 57 , .....
47 - 37 = 10
57 - 47 = 10
The difference between each two successive terms is 10. This means that each time we add 10 to the number we have in order to get the next one.
Therefore, the pattern is increasing by 10

Hope this helps :)
