The answer that you are looking for, for this question is D. Four thirds
The starting equation is
100=S+D+K
S is for Sarah, D is for Dave, and K is for Kate
This is what we know:
S=15+D
and
K=D-5
Now that we know how to find the values of everything, we must plug it in.
100=(15+D)+D+(D-5)
Combine like terms.
100=10+3D
Subtract 10 to isolate variable.
90=3D
Divide by 3 to isolate variable.
30=D
Plug in number to find the answers.
Answer:
Sarah worked for 45 hours
Dave worked for 30 hours
Kate worked for 25 hours
Area of paralellogram=legnth times height
l=legnth
h=height
area=96
lh=96
h is 4 less than l
h=-4+l
sub
l(-4+l)=96
-4l+l^2=96
minus 96 both sides
l^2-4l-96=0
factor
(l-12)(x+8)=0
set to zero
l-12=0
l=12
l+8=0
l=-8, imossible, legnth cannot be negative, disreagard this soultion
legnth=12cm
The answer would be B, since the other two just have to equal 100.
12*19=228 you dont need any thing else
