A+5 = 1 side, so the perimeter is 3(a+5) or P = 3a+15
Answer:
1/6 gallon of water
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of hikers = 3
Quantity of water shared = 1/2 gallon of water
If the water was shared equally among the hikers, then,
Amount of water each hiker drank = Quantity of water shared ÷ Number of hikers
= 1/2 ÷ 3
Multiply 1/6 by the reciprocal of 3
The reciprocal of 3 = 1/3
1/2 ÷ 3
= 1/2 × 1/3
= (1 * 1) / (2 * 3)
= 1/6
Amount of water each hiker drank = 1/6 gallon of water
The only things you can factor out of here is a 3 so you are left with:
3(y-6)
Hope that helps.
