Are equation for a rectangle is area = (width x length)
(18x - 12) = 6 x length
length = (18x - 12) / 6
length = 3x - 2
Answer:
40% and 4/10
Step-by-step explanation:
If you convert them into decimals, they will both give the same decimals which gives 0.4
Perimeter is
2 • width+ 2•length=
2• (4x-4)+2•(2x+5)=
Distribute multiplication in parentheses
8x-8+4x+10=
Combine like terms
12x+2
(1/6) / (1/4) = x / 1....1/6 acre to 1/4 hr = x acres to 1 hr
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(1/4)(x) = (1/6)(1)
1/4x = 1/6
x = 1/6 * 4/1
x = 4/6 which reduces to 2/3....so she can mow 2/3 of an acre in 1 hr <=
