Why is a square always a rectangle but a rectangle is not always a square

For the same reason that a man is always a person but a person
is not always a man. 

And the same reason that a 5th grader is always a student but a student
is not always a 5th grader.

A square is a special kind of rectangle ... one with all equal sides.  If all the
sides are not equal, then it's still a rectangle, but it's no longer the 'special'
kind of rectangle.

<span>A square is a special kind of rectangle, it is one where all the sides have the same length. Thus every square is a rectangle because it is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles. But not every rectangle is a square, to be a square its sides must have the same length.</span>

A worker’s total earning is $8.75 per hour plus a $10 tip; what are the hours worked if the worker earned $316.25 in one week?
Rus_ich [418]
First, you will subtract the $10 tip from the total earned, leaving you with $306.25 (earned from hours work). Your wage is $8.75/hr, so if you divide 306.25/8.75, you’ll get 35. You worked 35 hours to earn $306.25, and then got a $10 tip, bringing up your total to $316.25.

12x&gt;9 (2x-3)-15 solve for x and show steps please.
Verdich [7]

12x > 9(2x-3)-15

distribute the 9

12x > 18x-27 -15

combine like terms on the right side

12x > 18x-42

subtract 18x from both sides

-6x > -42

divide both sides by -6

x = -42 / -6 = 7

x >7
