Answer:

TU = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are concerned with finding TU

Mathematically;

Since U is between T and B, by convention;

TB = TU + UB

Substituting the values so we can find x;

55 = 6x + 16 + 2x -1

55 = 6x + 2x + 16-1

55 = 8x + 15

8x = 55-15

8x = 40

x = 40/8

x = 5

But TU = 6x + 16; substitute the value of 5 for x

TU = 6(5) + 16

TU = 30 + 16

TU = 46

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve 1+2. That is 3.

6/2 is 3.

So then we have 3 x 3, which is 9.

Question:

kykrilka [37]

What we know:
- number of meeting rooms = m
- chairs in each meeting room = 325

Since we need an equation to represent the number of chairs in m meeting rooms, we would multiply the amount of chairs per meeting room (325) by m. This amount is c. So the equation becomes:

c = 325m

Now the question asks for the amount of chairs if there are 7 meeting rooms in the hotel. To find this, substitute 7 for m into c = 325m.

c = 325m
c = 325(7)
c = 2275

Answer:
The equation is c = 325m, and the amount of chairs if m equals 7 is 2,275.

Hector has 3/4 hour to spend his homework. He wants to spend 1/3 of this time on math homework, 10 minutes of his time on readin

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

$1\ h=60\ mi$

we know that

Hector has 3/4 hour to spend his homework

Convert to minutes

$\frac{3}{4}(60)=45\ min$

1) He wants to spend 1/3 of this time on math homework

To find out the time on math homework, multiply 45 minutes by 1/3

$45(\frac{1}{3})=15\ min$

2) He wants to spend 10 minutes of his time on reading homework

3) He wants to spend the remaining time on science homework

The time spend on math homework plus the time spend reading homework, plus the time spend on his science homework must be equal to 45 minutes

Let

x ----> the time spend on his science homework

$15+10+x=45$

Solve for x

$25+x=45\\x=45-25\\x=20\ min$

PLEASE HELP FAST!! WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST IF GIVEN GOID ANSWER....

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

x = 36

y = 37.95

Step-by-step explanation:

By geometric mean property:

${12}^{2} = 4 \times x \\ \\ 144 = 4 \times x \\ \\ x = \frac{144}{4} \\ \\ x = 36 \\ \\$

By Pythagoras Theorem:

${y}^{2} = {12}^{2} + {x}^{2} \\ \\ {y}^{2} = {12}^{2} + {36}^{2} \\ \\ {y}^{2} = 144 + 1296 \\ \\ {y}^{2} = 1440 \\ \\ y = \sqrt{1440} \\ \\ y = 37.95$
