The reason fractions need a common denominator before adding or subtracting is so that the numbers of pieces you are adding/subtracting are all the same size. Note that the numerator of a fraction just tells you how many pieces you have of that size.
Answer:
Y = .2x + 6.95
Step-by-step explanation:
x = minutes, which is being multiplied every 20 cents.
Then the 6.95 is added to number of dollars
Answer:
The area of the whole field is 54400yd^2
Step-by-step explanation:
says that I add 10 yards in each zone, that means that 10 yards is added twice at 1000 yards
1000yd + 2*10yd = 1020yd
we have to know that one yard equals 3 feet
so to have the length in feet we only multiply it by 3
1020 * 3 = 3060ft
Now that we know the length and width of the court, we can calculate the area by multiplying them
a = b * h
a = 3060ft * 160ft
a = 489600 ft^2
the result is in square feet
if we want it in square yards we just have to divide 2 times by 3
489600/(3*3) = 54400yd^2
X + x + 24 = 58
x = (58-24)/2=17
the first number is 17 and the second number is the sum of 17 and 28. Finding it has been left as an exercise for the reader.
