Answer:

600 words

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. Lets input the values (100, 2.5, 5) as shown below:

\frac{100}{2.5}=\frac{x}{15}

Next we cross multiply. We multiply 2.5 and x, and we multiply 100 and 15.

2.5(x)=2.5x

100(15)=1,500

Now, lets put the values above back into the equation:

2.5x=1,500

Our next step is to divide 1,500 by 2.5 to get <em>x</em> by itself.

x=\frac{1,500}{2.5}

x=600

Sylvia can type 600 words in 15 minutes.

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 83 inches. If the length of each side is (2x -3), find the value of x.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

x = 15 \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Equilateral triangles have 3 equal sides.

Thus, perimeter of triangle

= 3(2x -3)

= 3(2x) +3(-3) <em>(</em><em>expand</em><em>)</em>

= (6x -9) inches

Given that the perimeter is 83 inches,

6x -9= 83

6x= 83 +9 <em>(</em><em>+</em><em>9</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>

6x= 92

x = 15 \frac{1}{3}
