Answer:

It will take 3.2 hours for 8 inches of snow to fall.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this be going "backwards".

You have 2.5 inches of snow falling per hour for x hours until you get 8 inches of snow, which can be represented like this:

2.5x=8  From here you being to solve by isolating x on one side of the equation. You would divide both sides by 2.5 to do this

2.5x=8

/2.5    /2.5

8 divided by 2.5 is 3.2 and you then get

x=3.2

It takes 3.2 hours for 8 inches of snow to fall

The length is 2 feet longer than the width. The perimeter is 36 feet, what is the length?
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The length would be 10ft and the width would be 8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose of this, we'll set the width as x. We can then define the length as x + 2 since we know it is 2 ft longer than the width. Now we can use those along with the perimeter formula to solve for the width.

P = 2l + 2w

36 = 2(x + 2) + 2(x)

36 = 2x + 4 + 2x

36 = 4x + 4

32 = 4x

8 = x

Now since we know that the width is 8ft, we can add 2ft to it to get the length, which would be 10ft.

Rhe sum of three consecutive ofd numbers is 87. What is the smallest of these numbers?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The smallest of the said odd numbers is 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is 3 odd numbers that sums up to 87, the first thing to do is to divide 87 by 3

That is 87/3 = 29, which is an odd number

The nearest odd  numbers to 29 are 27 and 31, and the total of all these three odd numbers is 87

That is 27+29+31 = 87, which are consecutive odd numbers.

The smallest odd number here is therefore 27
