A) 3 centerpieces per hour because 15/5 = 3
b) 14 hours, because 3 goes into 42 14 times exactly.
Hope this helps!
Since figure t is twice the size of figure s, figure t would be twice the size of s. hence the answer would be a scale factor of 2.
I have no idea how to do this problem i dont know what a is
Answer:
j. Pam, Tia, Veronica, Lily (if it's youngest to oldest)
Step-by-step explanation:
If Tia is 8 yrs old and she's 2 yrs older than Pam, then Pam must be 6 yrs old. Pam si 5 yrs younger than Veronica who must be 11 + 4 = 15.
Tia: 8 yrs.
Veronica: 11 yrs
Pam: 6 yrs.
Lily: 15
To find this, turn the word question into an equation.
"One less than" means - 1, which is 1 being subtracted from something.
"half a number" means 1/2x, since 1/2 is half and x is unknown.
"is 12" means = 12, which is something equals 12.
Putting this in order would be 1/2x, then - 1, then = 12.
As an equation, this is 1/2x - 1 = 12.
So the equation is 1/2x - 1 = 12
Now you must find the number by solving this equation.
1/2x - 1 = 12
First, add 1 to both sides.
12 + 1 = 13
1/2x = 13
Now multiply both sides by 2.
This way, x will be isolated since 1/2x • 2 = 1x, and 1x = x.
13 • 2 = 26
x = 26
The number is 26.
