Answer:

Mr. Taylor gets £150 in sterling.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Taylor brought back 180 Euros to the UK Pound.

The exchange rate was 1 pound = 1.2 Euros

We have to convert €180 to pound

Mr. Taylor gets in Pound sterling = $\frac{180}{1.2}$ = £150

Mr. Taylor gets £150 in sterling.

The length of a rectangle is 4 units less than the width. The area of the rectangle is 21 units. What is the length, in units, o

bazaltina [42]

The formula of an area of a rectangle:

A = wl

We have l = w - 4 and A = 21.

Substitute:

w(w - 4) = 21 use distributive property

(w)(w) + (w)(-4) = 21

w² - 4w = 21 subtract 21 from both sides

w² - 4w - 21 = 0

w² - 7w + 3w - 21 = 0

w(w - 7) + 3(w - 7) = 0

(w - 7)(w + 3) = 0 ↔ w - 7 = 0 ∨ w + 3 = 0

w = 7 ∨ w = -3 < 0

l = w - 4 → l = 7 - 4 = 3

<h3>Answer: the length = 3 u.</h3>

Pratap puri rowed 10 miles down a river in 2 hours, but the return trip took him 2 and one half hours. Find the rate pratap can

N76 [4]

Answer:

Rate of Pratap in still water is 4.5 miles/hour and rate of current is 0.5 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pratap Puri rowed 10 miles down a river in 2 hours, but the return trip took him 2.5 hours.

We know that, $Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

So, the speed of Pratap with the current will be: $(\frac{10}{2})miles/hour = 5$ miles/hour

and the speed of Pratap against the current will be: $(\frac{10}{2.5})miles/hour = 4$ miles/hour.

Suppose, the rate of Pratap in still water is $x$ and the rate of current is $y$ .

So, the equations will be........

$x+y= 5 .............................. (1)\\ \\ x-y=4 .............................. (2)$

Adding equation (1) and (2) , we will get......

$2x=9\\ \\ x=\frac{9}{2}= 4.5$

Now, plugging this $x=4.5$ into equation (1), we will get.....

$4.5+y=5\\ \\ y=5-4.5 =0.5$

Thus, Pratap can row at 4.5 miles per hour in still water and the rate of the current is 0.5 miles/hour.

(5x+7)(8x+7) = 0 Find the two possible values.

NeTakaya

$(5x + 7)(8x + 7) \\ \\ 5x + 7 = 0 \\ \\ 5x = - 7 \\ \\ x = \frac{ - 7}{5} \\ \\ 8x + 7 = 0 \\ \\ 8x = - 7 \\ \\ x = \frac{ - 7}{8} .$

the values of x are -7/5 and -7/8 .
