You want one of the values in the ratio to be one for a unit rate. First, write out the ratio. It is 70 miles/2 hours. It's better not to include decimal numbers when you write a ratio when you can, so we're going to make the hours the unit rate. To make 2 -> 1 hour, divide both sides of the ratio by 2. 70/2 = 35.
The unit rate is 35 mi./hr.
Hope that helped you.
Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
123°+3x = 180°
3x = 180°-123°
3x = 57
x = 57/3
x = 19
The reason why we use 123° + 3x = 180° because both are adjacent angles. Adjacent angles add up to 180°
Find the ratio of the known sides.
6/4 = 1.5
The larger triangle is 1.5 times larger than the smaller one.
Area is in square units, so to find the area of the larger triangle square the ratio and multiply that by the area of the known triangle.
1.5^2 x 40 = 90 square cm.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, write an equation. 55x+40=190.
X represents the hours the electrician works. The 55 represents the $55 that she charges for each hour she works. The +40 for the $40 that was the price just to come to your house. The 190 is the total cost. Now, solve that equation.
55x+40=190
55x=150
x=2.72727272...
So the answer is 2.727 hours. It can be rounded as needed or turned into a decimal, 2 8/11.
