The answer is most likely B. :)
Hi there!
8:30 to 12:45 is four hours and 15 minutes. You could easily count this but if you're having trouble you could also use a clock. :P
Hope this helps!
Mabel spends 4 hours editing a 3 minute video. she edits at a constant rate. how long does mabel spend to edit a 9 minute video?
she spends 4 hours on a 3 minute video
so there are 60 minutes in an hour
4 hours with 60 minutes- 4x60=240
so she spent 240 minutes on a 3 minute video
3 divided by 240
3/240= 0.0125
so her constant rate is 0.0125 minutes an hour
so divide 9 minutes by her constant rate
9/0.0125 = 720
so she spends 720 minutes on a 9 minute video.
divide 720 by 60 since there are 60 minutes in an hour
720/60 = 12
so she spends 12 hours on a 9minute video
28x + 44y = 964.40
21x + 33y = 723.30
Let's multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by -4
84x + 176y = 3857.6
-84x - 132y = -2893.2
Add the equations together.
0 + 44y = 964.4
Simplify
44y = 964.4
Divide both sides by 44
y = 964.4/44
Since we have the value of y, let's plug 964.4/44 into y for the first equation.
28x + 44(964.4/44) = 964.40
Simplify the left side
28x + 964.4 = 964.4
Subtract 964.4 from both sides
28x = 0
Divide both sides by 0
x = 0
In conclusion,
y = 964.4/44
x = 0
