Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's look at a few examples where we know the number of movies. Let's say just 1 movie is rented. Well, then there's the subscription charge of 4 dollars and then 2.25 for the one movie. Two movies would be 4+2.25+2.25. 3 would be 4+2.25+2.25+2.25. So the number of 2.25s increases with each movie. You could brute force it and just keep adding 2.25 until you get 31, but there's a better way.
Multiple additions like this is of course multiplication. so one movie is 1*2.25, two is 2*2.25 and so onwe want to know how many were bought, so let's call that number something we don't know, x. Also, you want to take into account the 4 dollar subscription fee. This leaves us with an equation that looks like this.
4+2.25x = 31
Now, to solve for x we can do a few things to this. I'm assuming you are new to this so I will take it slow. Let's say it was a simpler problem. 5+x=10. Or five plus something equals 10. You might be able to figure it out super easily and just know that 5+5 is 10. A way to solve it with our problem though is to take the euations 5+x=10 and manipulate it on each side of the equation. Here, 5 is being added to x, but what if we subtract 5? well, 5+x-5=x. Since we did that to one side of the equation though we have to do the ame to the other side. so 10-5. Or in other words we subtracte 5 from both sides.
5+x=10
-5 -5
x = 5
So that's ne part of how we are going to find x in 4+2.25x = 31
4+2.25x = 31
-4 -4
2.25x = 27
Now, in the last part 5 was being added so we subtracted. Here, 2.25 is being multiplied so we divide. If we divide both sides by 2.25 we get x = 12, so that's the answer.
Answer: 96 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>This figure can be divided into two rectangles:</u>
- The first rectangle has dimensions 6 ft by 14 ft.
- The second rectangle had dimensions 4 ft by 3 ft.
<u />
<u>Find the area of both rectangles:</u>
- The first rectangle: 6 × 14 = 84 ft²
- The second rectangle: 4 × 3 = 12 ft²
<u />
<u>Add them together to find the total area of the figure:</u>
84 + 12 = 96 ft²
Answer:
a. Ryan 70mph. Janelle 65mph.
b. 4 hours and 48 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Ryan 245/3.5=70 mph. Janelle 260/4=65 mph.
b. If Janelle drives 575 miles with the speed of 65 mph, in total it would take her 575/65=8.8 hours, which is 4.8 hours more than 4 hours. (0.8 hours is 48 minutes).
