Mathematics

WARRIOR [948]3 years ago
5 0


Margie would take 1 hour and 30 minutes to write 1 page of her research paper. Think of it like a proportion:

2.25/ 1.5 = x/1

2.25 is the 2 1/4 converted which is the amount of hours she took.

1.5 is the 1 1/2 converted which are the amount of pages she wrote total.

1 on the right side of the proportion represents  1 page.

And x are the amount of hours used  to write 1 page.

And in solving that proportion  it would result in 1.5 or 1hr. and 30 min.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

  • resistance: (2r +5)
  • current: (3i +4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of the given expression are ...

  6ir +15i +8r +20 = (3i +4)(2r +5)

Which factor is current and which is resistance is not clear. Usually, resistance is referred to using the variable r, so we suppose the expressions are supposed to be ...

  resistance: (2r +5)

  current: (3i +4)

Perimeter=2L+2W, in this case L=80+2(25) and W=170+2(25) so

P=2(L+W)=2(80+50+170+50)

Two complementary angles are represented by x and x+14 . find the value of x
qaws [65]

Answer:

x=38\textdegree

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that complementary angles <em>always </em>add up to 90°.

We know that the two complementary angles are represented by (x) and (x+14). In other words:

(x)+(x+14)=90

So, let's solve for x.

First, combine like terms:

2x+14=90

Let's isolate the x by subtracting 14 from both sides:

(2x+14)-14=(90)-14

The left cancels. Subtract on the right:

2x=76

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{76}{2}

The left side cancels. Divide on the right:

x=38\textdegree

So, the value of x is 38°.

And we're done!
