Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Patrica got 80% correct. She missed 4 problems, so that must have been the remaining 20% of the test.

Therefore:

4 = 20% x

Percent means out of 100, so:

4 = (20/100) x

4 = 1/5 x

x = 20

There were 20 problems on the test.

What is the perimeter ?

natta225 [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

the outer left side is also 50 ft.

in inner (upper) left side is also 13 ft.

the bottom line is 10+20+11 = 41 ft

this is all possible because all the angles are clearly right angles (90°).

so, the perimeter is

2×(10+20+11) + 2×50 + 2×13 = 82 + 100 + 26 = 208 ft

Answer:

$70 > 55 + t$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Previous\ Time = 1\ hr\ 10\ mins$

$Current\ Time = 55\ mins$

Required

Represent the additional time needed as an inequality

Convert the previous time to minutes

$Previous\ Time = 1\ hr\ 10\ mins$

$Previous\ Time = 1 * 60\ mins + 10\ mins$

$Previous\ Time = 60\ mins + 10\ mins$

$Previous\ Time = 70\ mins$

Let the additional time be t

<em>This means that she needs to run at least t minutes to beat her previous record</em>

<em />

To beat her previous record, the sum of current time and x must be less than her previous time. i.e.

$55 + t < 70$

This can be rewritten as:

$70 > 55 + t$
