Let y be Amelia's total earnings. Amelia earns $8 per hour. If we let x be the number of hours Amelia works, then the equation representing her earnings would be y=8x
Yes you can distribute.
6(8-5)
(6*8) - (6*5)
Solve for x
4 12
--- = --- 4x=36 36/4=9 x=9 = PQ=9in
3 x
4 18
--- = --- 4x=54 54/4=13.5 x=13.5 QR=13.5in
3 x
4 24
--- = --- 4x=72 72/4=18 x=18 PR=18in
3 x
18+13.5+9 = 40.5
Therefore, the perimeter of ΔPQR = 40.5inches
are you saying to divide 85 by 5? because if so, the answer is: 17
To be honest I do not know I am not that great at math but I can try
