Answer:

1. 9 hours      2. $377     3. 48 hours     4. 235 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In all cases below, let x represent the variable sought for.

1: 2x/5=3.6,

x=5/2 *3.6=9 hours

2. x-83=294

x=83+294=377

3. x+x/3=4x/3=64

x=64*3/4=48 hours

4. If the gardenview hotel's height  is x, then (x+17)/2 will be the height of the Plaza Hotel.

The combined height  will be x + (x+17)/2 = 361 feet

Multiplying by 2 across board,

2x+x+17=722

3x+17=722

3x =722-17=705

x=705/3=235m

51) 5x-1=0 and x+6=0
5x=1, x=1/5 and x=-6
2 solutions x=1/5 and x=-6

52)x(2x+3)=0
2x=0 and 2x+3 =0
x=0   and x=-3/2=-1.5

53) x(5x-1)=0
x=0 and 5x-1=0
x=0 and x=1/5

54) z(4z+7) =0
z=0 and 4z+7=0
z=0 and z= - 7/4 = -1.75
z=0 and z=-1.75

Farmer Smith enclosed his rectangular pasture with fence that cost him $1.50 per linear meter. If his pasture is twice as long a
maria [59]

Answer:

$2,700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pasture be x, this means that the length of the pasture will be 2x

The area of a rectangle is L * B

Hence,

x * 2x = 18,000

2x^2 = 180,000

x^2 = 90000

x = 300 meters

This means the length is 600 metres

Now, to get the length of the fence, we need to know the actual perimeter which is 2(L + B)

= 2 ( 300 + 600)

2 * 900 = 1,800 metres

The cost is thus 1,800 * $1.50 = $2,700

Suppose you work for a large coffee distributor that has a secret coffee blend it sells to local stores. You mix the House blend
TiliK225 [7]

The ratio House blend/Organic Free Trade blend is the same and must remain the same.

So, the proportion is:

\frac{140}{168}=\frac{130}{x}

Where x is the unknown amount of the Organic Free Trade blend.

So, from the proportion, we have:

\begin{gathered} 140\cdot x=168\cdot130 \\ 140x=21840 \\ \frac{140x}{140}=\frac{21840}{140} \\ x=156 \end{gathered}

Answer: 156 pounds of Organic Free Trade blend
