My guess is 3/10......because 24/60 is simplified to 3/10
Answer: Area = 6m²
Smaller number = 16
Hours = 9.6 h
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.
1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m
l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m
A₁ = A₂
A = w*l
A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x
A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2
A₁ = A₂
x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2
5x - 3x = 2
2x = 2
x = 1
A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²
The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.
<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>
5 40
5x = 80
x = 80/5 = 16
Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?
workers hours
16 3
5 x
↑ ↓ inversely proportional
<u> 5 </u> = <u> 3 </u>
16 x
5x = 16*3
5x = 48
x = 48/5
x = 9.6 h
<span> 80/-40=-40/20=-2,
the sequence: 80, -40, 20 is a geometric sequence
its general formula is Vn+1 = q Vn, where q= -2,
if we put </span>Vn+1 = f(x)
<span> Vn = x
so we have f(x)= -2x so the graph that represents the sequence is graph of linear equation

Answer:
The rate is 1 ÷ 2 yards per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the rate does the amount of yarn changes is given below:
= 3 3 ÷ 4 - 1 1 ÷8
= 15 ÷ 4 - 9 ÷ 8
= 21 ÷ 8 yards
Now divide the above fraction by the number of hours
= 21 ÷ 8 yards ÷ 5 1 ÷ 4
= 21 ÷ 8 × 4 ÷ 21
= 1 ÷ 2 yards per hour
Hence, the rate is 1 ÷ 2 yards per hour
The same would be relevant
