Answer:
I'm assuming that you meant to type: The question is x/5=1/2+1/8 ; X= ?
If so, we're solving for x.
x/5 = 1/2 + 1/8
2 is a factor of 8, so let's start with common denominators.
x/5 = 1/2 *(4/4) + 1/8
x/5 = 4/8 + 1/8
x/5 = 5/8 As long as we just need to know the value of x, let's use inverse operations.
x/5 *5 = 5/8 *5
x = 25/8 or 3.125
Let w represent the amount the wife receives.
.. w +2*(2/3*w) = 945,000
.. 7/3w = 945,000
.. w = (3/7)*945,000 = 405,000
The wife will receive $405,000.
Since width is the smaller value, set width=x. That wold mean that length=x+3. Since Area=width*length, 40=x(3+x). Distribute the x to give you 40=3x+x^2. Set the equation equal to 0 giving you x^2+3x-40=0. Factor the equation to give you (x+8)(x-5)=0. Set each factor equal to 0. x+8=0 gives you x=-8 & x=-5 gives you x=5. Since we're working with lengths of objects, it can't be negative. Therefore, your width is 5. To find length, substitute width into the original expression (x+3). Therefore, length is 5+3=8.
Answer:
The nautical mile is based on the Earth's longitude and latitude coordinates, with one nautical mile equaling one minute of latitude.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: $80.44
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, find 20% of 78.86, which is approximately 15.77.
Then, add it to the cost of the meal.
Finally, discount 15% of 94.63, which is approximately $14.19, and then subtract it from $94.63, and there's your answer.
