Answer:

The total distance the mouse scurries:

3+2+3.6= 8.6 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the mouse scurries 3 meters along the length of the kitchen to reach a piece of cheese in the southwest corner. Then the mouse scurries 2 meters along the width of the kitchen to its other hole in the southeast corner.

We calculate diagonal of the kitchen:

$d^2=3^2+2^2\\d^2=9+4\\d=\sqrt{13}\\d=3.6\, m$

The total distance the mouse scurries:

3+2+3.6= 8.6 meters.

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\bf\:c = \frac{11}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$4c + 2c = 4c + \frac{11}{2}$

Cancel 4c on both the sides of the equation.

$2c = \frac{11}{2}$

Bring the 2 in the denominator of 11/2 to the left hand side of the equation.

$2*2c = 11\\4c = 11$

Bring 4 to the right hand side if the equation.

$\boxed{\bf\:c = \frac{11}{4}}$

4.8/1 7/9 =(1.2b):6 2/3

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

b = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for b:

$\dfrac{4.8}{1\frac{7}{9}}=\dfrac{1.2b}{6\frac{2}{3}}$

Cross multiply:

$6\dfrac{2}{3}\cdot 4.8=1.2b\cdot 1\dfrac{7}{9}\\ \\\dfrac{6\cdot 3+2}{3}\cdot 4.8=1.2b\cdot \dfrac{9+7}{9}\\ \\\dfrac{20}{3}\cdot \dfrac{48}{10}=\dfrac{12b}{10}\cdot \dfrac{16}{9}\\ \\20\cdot 4=b\cdot \dfrac{16}{3}\\ \\5=b\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}\\ \\b=5\cdot 3\\ \\b=15$

6-1/3x=-1 How do I do this

I am Lyosha [343]

Im gonna assume you mean 6 - (1/3)x = -1. Your notation is not super clear. If so, solution is as follows:

6 - (1/3)x = -1 [subtract 6 from both sides]
-(1/3)x = -7 [multiply both sides by -3]
x = 21
