Answer:
The first student is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
With the given information there is already 4 inches on the rectangle. 13 x2 = 26. 26+4=30. For student two if the unknown number was 10 it would not work because the longest side is 3 less then the unknown number. 10-3=7. 7x2=14. 14+4= 28<30
<u><em>Answer: </em></u>
#9: 5
#10: -2
#11: -1.5
<em><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></em>
<em><u>#9:</u></em> 3,8,13,18,23,(28),(33),(38),.. <em>Go up by 5 each time, so the common difference is </em><u><em>5</em></u><em>.</em>
<u><em>#10:</em></u> 11,9,7,5,3,(1),(-1),(-3),... <em>Go down </em><em>(-)</em><em> by 2 each time, so the common difference is </em><u><em>-2</em></u><em>.</em>
<u><em>#11:</em></u> 3, 1.5, 0, -1.5, -3, (-4.5), (-6), (-7.5),... <em>Go down </em><em>(-) </em><em>by 1.5 each time, so the common difference is </em><u><em>-1.5</em></u><em>.</em>
Options A,C,D and E are the correct answers
To find the answer,we can set an equation:
Let the time he used to drive in the afternoon be y miles.
Time used in the afternoon = y
Time used in morning = y - 70
Total time used = 248
The value of y:
y + (y - 70) = 248
2y-70 = 248
2y = 248+70
2y = 318
y = 318/2
y = 159
Therefore, he droved 159 miles in the afternoon.
Hope it helps!
