To solve this problem we can make the following rule of three
6 ---> 3/4
x ----> 1
Clearing x we have:
x = (1/3/4) * (6)
x = (4/3) * (6)
x = 24/3
x = 8

The price for each instructor will be the same at 3 hours. How I determined this answer:
First off, you need to add the initial price and hourly price for each person together, so you already know how much it will cost for 1 hour, including the initial fee. Here's how you do it:
Ieda: $11.00 (hourly price) + $8.50 (initial fee) = $19.50 (for 1 hour)
Thanh: $10.50 (hourly price) + $10.00 (initial fee) = $20.50 (for 1 hour)
Now that you have the price for 1 hour including the initial fee, now you need to find the price for each hour after that. Here's how I did that:
I created a graph that looked like this:
Hours: 1 2 3
Ieda: 19.50 30.50 41.50
Thanh: 20.50 31.00 41.50
Here's how I figured out the price for each hour:
Ieda:
Hour 1 (including initial price):
$11.00 + $8.50 = $19.50
Hour 2 (excluding initial price): Only add the hourly price after Hour 1!
$19.50 + $11.00 = $30.50
Hour 3 (excluding initial price):
$30.50 + $11.00 = $41.50
Thanh:
Hour 1 (including initial price):
$10.50 + $10.00 = $20.50
Hour 2 (excluding initial price):
$20.50 + $10.50 = $31.00
Hour 3 (excluding initial price):
$31.00 + $10.50 = $41.50
So, looking at the graph, their prices are the same once each instruction reaches 3 hours. ($41.50)
I hope I was able to help you! :)
The length would be 18 inches and the width would be 9 inches since the length is twice its width and to find perimeter you do length x 2 and width x 2 and add it together so 18x2 = 36 and 9x2 = 18. 36 + 18 = 54
30 treadmills : 36 ellipticals
this could be written in a few ways, but i am going to write it as a fraction. since treadmills come first, you put 30/36.
now that you have your fraction you have to find the GCF (greatest common factor) of the two numbers. the GCF is 6, so you have to divide 30 treadmills by 6, and 36 ellipticals by 6.
30/6=5
36/6=6
5/6 or 5:6 is the simplified ratio of treadmills to ellipticals
