Let
be the number of hours that the waitress works in the evening.
We know for our problem that she works
in the afternoon and that she works <span>1.75 hours less in the afternoon than in the evening, so:
</span>
<span>Since </span>
, we can rewrite our expression:
We can conclude that she works 3.375 hours in the evening, or expressed as a mixed fraction:
hours.
W - a width
3w - a length
27 ft² - an area
Therefore:
w · 3w = 27
3w² = 27 |:3
w² = 9 → w = √9 → w = 3
3w = 3 · 3 = 9
width = 3
length = 9
The perimeter:
P = 2 · width + 2 · length
P = 2 · 3 + 2 · 9 = 6 + 18 = 24 ft.
Answer: Length = 11
Width = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the unknown length.
Let x - 2 represent the unknown width.
The perimeter is equal to 2 times x + (x -2)
Equation:
2 (x + (x - 2)) = 40
x + (x - 2) = 40/2
x + x - 2 = 20
2x - 2 = 20
2x -2 + 2 = 20 + 2
The length is: 2x = 22 -> x = 22/2 -> x = 11
The width is: x - 2 = 9
Answer:mick share is £4 while Sharon share is £8
Step-by-step explanation:
Money to be shared=£12
Mick : sharon=2:4
Sum of ratio=2+4=6
Mick share=2/6 x 12
Mick share=(2x12)/6
Mick share=24/6
Mick share=4
Sharon share=4/6 x 12
Sharon share=(4x12)/6
Sharon share=48/6
Sharon share=48/6
Sharon share=8
No, you got the inequalities the wrong way.
In negative numbers, it is how much lower it is than 0. For example, -22 is 22 less than 0. And -2 is 2 less than 0. Here, -22 is actually less than -2 because it is farther below 0 than -2.
You can understand this better if you graph it on a number line.
So, -12 >-15. (-15 is 3 less than -12).
-1/3 >-1.
-2>-21.
