First, change everything into minutes.
12 noon is 12 by 60 which = 720 minutes.
9am is 9 by 12 which = 540 minutes.
X is now your number of minutes before noon.So noon - x is the next step:
720 - x
20 minutes ago it was 720 - x - 20
720 - x - 20= 540 + 3x (3x because you're looking for 3 times as many minutes)
720 - 20 - 540=4x (you combine all the like numbers and variables)
160 = 4x
160/4= x
40 = x
Your answer is 40 minutes

Answer: 50x+30y+5z= 690
40x+15y+5z= 620
45x+10y+5z= 510

Hello!
The formula for finding area of a rectangle is length × width
<em><u>1st garden
</u></em>l = 10.25
<u><em /></u><em />w = 6.2
6.2 × 10.25 = 63.55
Area = 63.55 ft²
<em><u>2nd garden</u></em>
l = 20.5
w = 12.4
20.5 × 12.4 = 254.2
Area = 254.2 ft²
Divide the bigger area by the smaller area
254.2 ÷ 63.55 = 4
Answer:
The length is 14 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
length = L
width = W
perimeter = P
"The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its length and its width."
P = 2(L + W)
"The perimeter is 40 meters"
40 = 2(L + W)
"and its length is 2 meters more than twice its width."
L = 2W + 2
Replace L with 2W + 2 in equation 40 = 2(L + W):
40 = 2(2W + 2 + W)
40 = 2(3W + 2)
20 = 3W + 2
3W = 18
W = 6
The width is 6 meters.
L = 2W + 2 = 2(6 m) + 2 m = 12 m + 2 m = 14 m
Answer: The length is 14 m.
