Answer: The length is 5 times the width


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The area of rectangle = 5x^2=(5x)(x)

Here x must be a positive real number since it can not be negative.

Also for area of rectangle =length \times width

And length is always greater than width of rectangle, therefore in the given expression 'x' must be width and '5x' must be length of rectangle .

[∵ for every positive x , 5x>x]

Hence, the coefficient 5 means the length is 5 times the width.

Calculate the unit rate:<br>write your answer as a decimal <br><br>1/2 mile in ever 1/3 hour​
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

unit \: rate =  \frac{distance}{time}

unit rate is similar to speed / velocity:

unit \: rate =  \frac{ (\frac{1}{2} )}{ (\frac{1}{3})} \\  \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  \div  \frac{1}{3}  \\  \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times  \frac{3}{1}  \\  \\  = >  { \boxed{ \boxed{unit \: rate  =   \frac{3}{2}  \: miles \: per \: hour}}}

[<em>unit</em><em> </em><em>rate</em><em> </em><em>must</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>units</em><em> </em><em>including</em><em> </em><em>per</em><em> </em><em><</em><em>time</em><em>></em><em> </em>]

Estimate 10/12 − 3/8 using benchmark values. Your equation must show the estimate for each fraction and the final estimate for t
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: \frac{11}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

Give expression is,

\frac{10}{12}-\frac{3}{8}

Since L.C.M ( 12, 8 ) = 24

=\frac{10\times 2}{12\times 2}-\frac{3\times 3}{8\times 3}

=\frac{20}{24}-\frac{9}{24}

=\frac{20-9}{24}

=\frac{11}{24}

\text{Hence, }\frac{10}{12}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{11}{24}
