Answer:
Long part= 45
Short part= 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the short part of the stick be x
Let the long part be x+20
The total length of the stick is 70cm
x + (x+20)= 70
x+x+20= 70
2x+20= 70
2x= 70-20
2x= 50
x= 50/2
= 25
Longer part length= 20+25
= 45
The short part is 25
Answer:
3 tents hold 2 campers
Step-by-step explanation:
The given relations can be expressed as a single equation in the number of 2-camper tents.
__
Let x represent the number of 2-camper tents. Then the number of 4-camper tents is 6-x, and the total number of campers in tents is ...
2x +4(6 -x) = 18
-2x +24 = 18
-2x = -6 . . . . . . subtract 24
x = 3 . . . . . . . divide by -2
Exactly 3 tents hold 2 campers.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The other 3 tents hold 4 campers.
Another way to consider this is to assume that all tents hold 2 campers, and then realize there are 18 -6×2 = 6 campers left over. If these are placed 2 per tent, then there will be 6/2 = 3 tents with 4 campers. The remaining 3 tents will have 2 campers.
Answer:
It is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
9(4)=36
36(4)=144
144(4)=576
576(4)=2304
Hope this helps:)
Maybe the second one or third one
Change in altitude:
42,000 - 18,000 = 24,000 feet
Rate of change = 24,000 feet / 12 minutes = 2,000 feet per minute
Because the plane was going down, the rate of change would be negative.
The rate would be -2,000 feet per minute.
