My late response (haha): First, you would write a proportion.
Step 1: 2496 over 48 = x over 31
(x represents the area of the land that is not fenced).
Step 2: Cross multiply
2496 times 31 and x times 48
Step 3: Calculate
77376 = 48x
Step 4: Divide both sides by 48
77376/48 = 1612
48x/48 = x
Step 5: Write it as a sentence
The area of the land that is not fenced is 1612 squared meters.
Hope that helped! Good luck! :]
<span>22% of $40 is $8.80 so the now rate should be $40.00+$8.80=$48.80</span>
It takes 5 minutes per square foot (400/180=5) and so 5 minutes per square for 720 squares: 720x5=3,600. 3,600 minutes is equivalent to 60 hours so it takes him 60 hours.
Answer: Your brother is 15 years old right now.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "m" your currently age and "b" your brother's currently age.
Knowing that right now he is three times (this indicates multiplication) as old as you, you can write the following equation:
In five years your age will be:
And your brother's age will be:
Then, if in five years, your brother will be twice as old as you, you can set up the second equation:
Then, the System of equations is:
Apply the Substitution method and substitute the first equation into the second one and solve for "m":
Substitute the value of "m" into the first equation and evaluate in order to find "b":
Answer:
12c square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that
Area of a rectangle = length (L)× width(w)
Here it is given that length ,and width of the rectangle is 6c meters and 2 meters respectively.
Therefore, required area of the rectangle = 6c × 2 = 12c square meters.
