You can use factors to solve. Determine all the factor pairs of 24, find the two that are two numbers apart.
1, 24 X
2, 12 X
3, 8 X
4, 6 YES!
Algebraic way to solve using Quadratics:
l = 2 + w
A = lw
A = (2 + w)w Substitute (2 + w) for l
24 = (2 + w)w Substitute 24 in for the area
24 = 2w + w^2 Distribute
w^2 + 2w - 24 = 0 Set equal to 0 (put in standard form)
(w + 6) (w - 4) = 0 Factor
w + 6 = 0 and w - 4 = 0 Set each factor equal to 0.
So w= -6 or w = 4 ... -6 makes no sense for a length! So the width must be 4 and the length will be 4 + 2, which is 6.
Answer:
960
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure exactly what's the question, but here's what I found. Lets first put it in our own words.
Consider the speed 4/5 miles in 12 minutes to travel 2/8.
8 + 4 = 12, so you can replace that with 12 minutes.
Now, you can absolutely guess your question.
Time = 12 minutes.
Distance = x (Let x be distance)
Speed = 4/5.
Now, you find distance.
Distance Formula: You can use the equivalent formula d = st which means distance equals rate times time.
So 4/5 × 12, is 9.6.
In fraction, if you have 1 numbers after the decimal point, multiply both numerator and denominator by 10. So 9.6 = (9.6 × 10) × 10 = 960.
Here is a pattern I found
2/5 divided by 4 is 1/10
4/5 divided by 8 is 1/10
First you have to isolate one of the equations for y=mx+b.
Then substitute the equation is made into the first equation
64 cups
there are 16 cups in a gallon so 16 times 4
