Answer:

B. 8 times the difference of a number z and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Step 1: Translate (z - 6)

z = a number z

- = difference

6 = six

(z - 6) = The difference between a number z and 6

Step 2: Translate 8(z - 6)

(z - 6) = The difference between a number z and 6

Since we are distributing the 8, we are multiplying.

8 times the difference of a number z and 6

A field with an area of 2880 ft^2 has the shape of a rectangle, whose length is 12 ft larger than its width. Find the dimensions

tiny-mole [99]

ANSWER

w=48,l=60

EXPLANATION

Let the width of the field be, w , then,

the length of the field will be:

$l = 12 + w$

The area of a rectangle is

$Area = lw$

This implies that:

$w(12 + w) = 2880$

Expand

${w}^{2} + 12w = 2880$

${w}^{2} + 12w - 2880 = 0$

$(x + 60)(x - 48) = 0$

This implies that,

$w = - 60 \: w = 48$

The dimensions are positive, the width is 48 and the length is 12+48=60

For field trips, Stewart Middle School has parents chaperone groups of students. They always keep the same ratio of parents to s

horrorfan [7]

There'll be 5 parents that'll go to the museum

Let the number of parents that will go to the museum be represented by x.

Based on the information given, the equation to use will be:

15/75 = x/25

Cross multiply

75 × x = 15 × 25

75x = 375

Divide both side by 75

75x/75 = 375/75

x = 5

Therefore, there'll be 5 parents that'll go to the museum.

Mary ran 4 miles in 37 minutes. If she continued at the same pace, how long would it take her to run 11 miles?

Pavlova-9 [17]

Solution:

we are given that

Mary ran 4 miles in 37 minutes.

we have been asked to find

how long would it take her to run 11 miles?

Since Mary ran 4 miles in 37 minutes, it mean time taken to run 1 miles can be given by

$t_{1 \ mile}=\frac{37}{4} \ minutes.$

Hence we can write , time taken in running 11 miles as

$t_{11 \ mile}=\frac{37}{4}*11 \ minutes.\\ \\ t_{11 \ mile}=\frac{407}{4} \ minutes\\ \\ t_{11 \ mile}=101.75 \ minutes\\$
