Given that Jerry mows 3/20 yards of lawn in 1/6 hour.

Now we have to found how much Jerry can mow per hour.

We know that "work" and "time" are in direct proportion so we can setup the ratio of work and time to easily find the required work.

\frac{Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed}{time}=\frac{\frac{3}{20}}{\frac{1}{6}}

\frac{Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed}{1}=\frac{\frac{3}{20}}{\frac{1}{6}}

Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed=\frac{3}{20}*\frac{6}{1}

Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed=\frac{18}{20}

Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed=\frac{9}{10}

Hence final answer is \frac{9}{10} yards.

He mows 9/10 of his yard per hour.

It takes him 1/6 of an hour to mow 3/20 of his yard.  6(1/6) = 1 hour; 6(3/20) = 18/20 = 9/10.

12 ^3  and 11^3   haven't got the same base  so the rules of exponents do not apply.

Bases have to be the same:-  for example 12^3 * 12*3  = 12 ^(3+3)  = 12^6

HELP!! 25 Points!!!

There you go... a. 10

If we add x to both sides, we get rid of the x on the right side which leaves us 1/2x + 2 = 7. (1/2=0.5)

Then if we substract 2 from both sides, we will get 1/2x = 5

If half of x = 5, then the whole of x = 10.

Which inequality is represented by the accompanying graph?<br> Thank you!!!
yan [13]

Answer:

y<3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is  y<3 because all areas below y=3 are shaded.

In addition, the line y=3 is dotted, which means it is not part of the inequality (i.e. strict inequality).

If it had been a full line, then it would be y<=3.
