Answer:

72 houses.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that a postal worker can deliver the mail to 18 houses in 15 minutes.

Let us find numbers of mails delivered by postal worker per minute.

\text{Number of mails delivered per minute}=\frac{18\text{ houses}}{15\text{ minutes}}

\text{Number of mails delivered per minute}=1.2\frac{\text{ houses}}{\text{ minute}}

Since we know that 1 hour equals 60 minutes, so we will multiply 1.2 by 60 to find the number mails postal worker will deliver in 1 hour.

\text{Number of mails delivered in 1 hour}=1.2\frac{\text{ houses}}{\text{ minute}}\times 60\frac{\text{minutes}}{\text{hour}}

\text{Number of mails delivered in 1 hour}=1.2\times 60\frac{\text{ houses}}{\text{hour} }

\text{Number of mails delivered in 1 hour}=72\frac{\text{ houses}}{\text{hour} }

Therefore, the postal worker will be able to deliver mails to 72 houses in 1 hour.

Solve the equation -4 + 4a = 12 for a.
WARRIOR [948]

Hello there! The answer to your question is a = 4.

To solve for a in the equation -4 + 4a = 12 you want to isolate, or separate, a from all of the equation's other values.

Our first step is to add 4 to both sides so the 4 cancels out on the left side.

-4+4 + 4a = 12+4

4a = 16

Next, we divide both sides by 4 to finish isolating a.

4/4a = 16/4

a = 4

Want to verify that this is correct? Place the value we found for a (4) into the equation in place of a and if it comes out as a true statement, the answer is correct.

-4 + 4(4) = 12

-4 + 16 = 12

12 = 12

Since 12 is in fact equal to 12, i can guarantee you that i have provided you with the correct answer. I hope this helps & have a great rest of your day! :)
