To find this answer, we must divide the amount Dillion earned, by the time he put into his work.
170 / 20 = 8.5
Therefor, we now know that Dillion makes $8.5 an hour.
1.) 4 - t = 3(t - 1) - 5
4 - t = 3t - 3 - 5
4 - t = 3t - 8
3t + t = 4 + 8
4t = 12
t = 12/4 = 3
2.) 8x - 2(x + 1) = 2(3x - 1)
8x - 2x - 2 = 6x - 2
6x - 2 = 6x - 2
0 = 0
solution is identity.
3.) 3(c - 2) = 2(c - 6)
3c - 6 = 2c - 12
3c - 2c = -12 + 6
c = -6
4.) 0.5(m + 4) = 3(m - 1)
0.5m + 2 = 3m - 3
3m - 0.5m = 2 + 3
2.5m = 5
m = 5/2.5 = 2
m = 2
If the length of a rectangle is 3m longer than its width, then:
L=W+3
Is the area really 154^2? Or is it 154m^2? If yes, then:
A=LW
154=(W+3)(W)
154=(W^2+3W)
0=W^2+3W-154
0=(W-11)(W+14)
This means either (W-11) or (W+14) is equal to zero so:
W=11 and W=-14
To find out let's substitute the numbers:
154=(11+3)(11)
154=154
Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 11m
