Answer:
1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
If he eats 3 Cheetos a minute, then by the first hour he would have eaten 180.
60 x 3= 180
This is another one for my "impossible math question" file. All of the answer choices are wrong. (None applies.)
According to the problem statement, the length you have marked "x" in the diagram is 15 inches. If the side length of one of the pavers is "s", then the Pythagorean theorem tells us
s² + (2s)² = 15²
5s² = 225
s² = 225/5 = 45 . . . . . . the area of one square is 45 in² (not 225 in²)
Then
s = √45 = 3√5 . . . . . . . the length of one side is not 5√3
so the perimeter is
p = 4s = 4·3√5 in = 12√5 in ≈ 26.83 in . . . . not 75 inches.
The area of the 6-block L-shaped path is
total area = 6s² = 6·45 in² = 270 in² . . . . not 450 in²
And the total perimeter is 14 sides, so is
total perimeter = 14s = 14·3√5 in = 42√5 in . . . . not 60√3 in

In cases like this where the answer key is incorrect, you might try asking your teacher show the class how to work the problem.
The five gallons is cheaper since 97.45 divided by 5 is equal to 19.49.
Answer:
CE = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 intersecting chords then the product of the parts of one chord is equal to the product of the parts of the other chord, that is
x(x + 1) = 3 × 4 = 12
x² + x = 12 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
x² + x - 12 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 4)(x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3
But x > 0 so x = 3
Then
CE = x = 3
