Peter sells 2/3 lb. of rice every 1/3 hour. How much rice does Peter sell in an hour? Please explain

1 answer:

7 0

For this you should set up a proportion.

2/3. 1/3
------ = --------
x. 3/3

Then cross multiply 3/3 x 2/3 and divide by 1/3

2/3 x 3/3 = 6/9

6/9 \ 1/3 = 6/9 x 3/1 = 18/1

Peter sells 18 bags of rice per hour.

ANTONII [103]

Answer: x=68/11 and y=-72/11

Steps:

2(x+4y=-20)

2x+8y=-40

2x - 3y = 32
- 2x + 8y = -40

-11y=72

y=-72/11

x + 4(-72/11) = -20

x - 288/11 = -20

x=68/11

ABCDEFGHI is a regular 9-sided polygon.

Igoryamba

Answer:

angle BEF = 100 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

For a regular 9-sided polygon (nonagon),

each exterior angle = 360/9=40 degrees

each interior angle = 180-40 = 140 degrees.

Referring to diagram, in the trapezoid (trapezium) BCDE, the base angles are 180-140 = 40 degrees.

Therefore angle DEB = 40 degrees

that leaves BEF = 140-40 = 100 degrees
