Answer: Area = 6m²
Smaller number = 16
Hours = 9.6 h
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.
1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m
l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m
A₁ = A₂
A = w*l
A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x
A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2
A₁ = A₂
x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2
5x - 3x = 2
2x = 2
x = 1
A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²
The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.
<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>
5 40
5x = 80
x = 80/5 = 16
Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?
workers hours
16 3
5 x
↑ ↓ inversely proportional
<u> 5 </u> = <u> 3 </u>
16 x
5x = 16*3
5x = 48
x = 48/5
x = 9.6 h
Answer:
x=45
Step-by-step explanation:
70+65=135
180-135=45
QUESTION
Your equation is 2x+3y=2 and you need to find the slope.
EXPLANATION
There are many ways to find the slope with an equation like this. I'm going to change the equation into slope-intercept form.
Slope-intercept form is formatted like this:
y=mx+b
m represents the slope. The first thing you need to do is leave 3y alone to change the equation into slope-intercept form. That means you need to subtract 2x from both sides.
The next thing you need to do is leave y alone, just like the slope-intercept form example. To leave y alone, you need to divide 3y by 3.
Now the equation has been changed to slope-intercept form. In the equation, m has been replaced by 
, which means that is your answer.
Answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This question will be solved using the combination formula which is nCr because the order is unimportant and we need the selection.
11C6
11!/(11-6)!*6!
= 462
Therefore the manager can select the restaurant in 462 ways.

although this statement doesn't make any sense.
