Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The easiest approach is to realise that one hour is 3 times longer than 20 minutes. The longer the time, the more they will pave.
215 of a mile, in 20 minutes, how much in 60 minutes?#
They will pave 3 times more.
215×31=615 of a mile
615=25 of a mile
You could also use the 'unitary method' where you find out how much they pave in ONE minute (divide by 20) and them multiply by 60 to find how much in one hour.
Look at what happens:
215÷20×60
=215×120×603
=215×3 ← exactly the same maths.
=25
Rewrite the given quadratic equation in standard form: Kx 2 + 2x - 1 = 0
Discriminant = 4 - 4(K)(-1) = 4 + 4K
For the equation to have two real solutions, the discriminant has to be positive. Hence we need to solve the inequality 4 + 4K > 0.
The solution set to the above inequality is given by: K > -1 for which the given equation has two real solutions.
Answer:
52 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Your age = x
3 times your age = 3 * x
= 3x
The equation can be written as:
400 - 3x = 244
400 - 244 = 3x
156 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3
x = 156/3
x = 52
Therefore,
Your age is 52 years
