Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{x+50}{2}$ = 13x

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction on the left side

x + 50 = 26x ( subtract x from both sides )

50 = 25x ( divide both sides by 25 )

2 = x ⇒ x = 2 → A

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

this would be equal to (x+50)/2 = 13x

so x/2 + 25 = 13x

combine like terms

25 = 25x/2

x = 2

Each part of a race is 1/10 mile long. Marsha finished 5 part of the race.How far did marsha race?

andre [41]

We can multiply the number of parts Marsha has finished by the miles of each part:

5 × 1/10

= 5/10

=1/2

Therefore, she raced 1/2 miles.

Hope it helps!

What is the volume of the prism shaped containers

ss7ja [257]

Answer:Volume of a cube = side times side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side cubed. If a square has one side of 4 inches, the volume would be 4 inches times 4 inches times 4 inches, or 64 cubic inches. (Cubic inches can also be written in3.)

What fraction of a clockwise revolution does the hour hand of a clock turn through, when it goes from a) 5 to 11? b)2 to 8? c)10

LenKa [72]

Answer: 1/2, 1/2, 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the fraction that the hour hand turns of a clockwise revolution, we have to find how long it is going then divide by 12

Ex. a) 11 - 5 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

b) 8 - 2 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

c) For this, we have to convert 1 into 13 as 1 - 10 is a negative number

13 - 10 = 3, 3/12 = 1/4 so the hour hand turns by 1/4 of a clockwise revolution
