Represent the unknowns.
<span>Let x = length </span>
<span>since the width is 3/4 of the length, </span>
<span>Let (3/4)x = width </span>
<span>Recall that the area of rectangle is just width multiplied by the length, </span>
<span>A = w * l </span>
<span>Substituting, </span>
<span>432 = (3/4)x * x </span>
<span>432 = (3/4)x^2 </span>
<span>432 * 4/3 = x^2 </span>
<span>576 = x^2 </span>
<span>Get the square root of both sides, </span>
<span>x = 24 feet (length) </span>
X= assistant's wage
x+15= instructor's wage
Add their wages set equal to $65
x + (x + 15)= 65
combine like terms
2x + 15= 65
subtract 15 from both sides
2x= 50
divide both sides by 2
x= $25 assistant's wage
x+15= 25 + 15= $40 instructor's wage
ANSWER: (C) $25 hourly wage of assistant
Hope this helps! :)
<span>To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have the following information given in the problem above:
- There are 75 classmates.
- 56% of his 75 classmates like salsa music and 80% of his 60 relatives like salsa music.
2. Therefore, you have:
- Number of his classmates that likes salsa music:
75x0.56=42
- Number of his r</span>elatives that like salsa music:
60x0.80=48
3. Then you have:
48-42=6
Therefore, the answer is: 6.
507 - 30 = 477
477 / 0.4 = 1192.5
1192.4 / 8 = 149.0625 miles or 150 miles
i don't know if this is right cause the answer seems so absurd
