Restating the question clearly:

Ben drinks tea at an incredible rate. He drinks 3 1/2 liters of tea every 2/3 of an hour. How much does he drink in one hour?

Answer:

He drinks $5\frac{1}{4}\ liters\$ in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

$Rate\ of\ drinking\ =\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ per\ \frac{2}{3}\ of\ an\ hour\\$ $\therefore\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ is\ consumed\ in\ \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\\frac{7}{2} \ liters = \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\cross-multiplying\\7 \times 3\ liters = 2 \times 2\ hours\\21\ liters = 4\ hours\\4\ hours\ = 21\ liters\\\therefore\ for\ 1\ hour\\\frac{4}{4}\ hours = \frac{21}{4}\ liters\\1\ hour = 5.25\ liters\\5.25\ liters = 5\frac{1}{4}\ liters$

A parallelogram has an area of 34.75 square centimeters. If its height is 5 cm, find the

spayn [35]

Answer:

6.95 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a parallelogram is calculated as

A = bh ( b is the base and h the height )

Here A = 34.75 and h = 5, thus

34.75 = 5b ( divide both sides by 5 )

b = 6.95 cm

"the perimeter of a rectangle is 42 centimeters. the length of the rectangle can be represented by (x+4), and the width can be r

Zolol [24]

Perimeter is the sum of all the sides. One length equals (x+4) so both of the lengths will equal 2(x+4) = 2x+8. One width is (2x-7) so both will equal 2(2x-7) = 4x-14.

we can write this into an equation like so:
2x+8+4x-14=42
6x-6=42
6x=48
x=8

Then we substitute 8 back into the equations for the lengths of the sides.
8+4= 12 so the length is 12cm
2x8= 16, 16-7=9 so the width is 9cm
