First convert everything into inches.
1 foot = 12 in
5 feet = 5*12 = 60 in
12 feet = 12*12 = 144 in
Now add them together
60 + 9 + 144 + 3 = 216 in
or
18 feet
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
1/4 -or- 4
Step-by-step explanation:
take the x-axis value 16 and divide by the other x-axis value, 4.
No, there is no 'greatest integer'. That is because positive numbers can go up tp infinite, and we do not know where numbers stop.
However, there is a negative greatest integer because the ones that's closes to zero is -1.
<u>We are given:</u>
An even number 'n', multiplied by the next consecutive even number is 168
<u>Solving for n:</u>
From the given statement, we can say that:
n(n+2) = 168 [<em>n multiplied by the next even number 'n+2'</em>]
n² + 2n = 168
n² + 2n - 168 = 0 [<em>subtracting 168 from both sides</em>]
We can see that we now have a quadratic equation, solving using splitting the middle term
n² + 14n - 12n - 168 = 0
n(n + 14) -12(n + 14) = 0 <em>[factoring out common terms</em>]
(n-12)(n+14) = 0
Here, we can divide both sides by either (n-12) OR (n+14)
Checking the result in both the cases:
(n + 14) = 0/(n-12) (n-12) = 0/(n+14)
n + 14 = 0 n - 12 = 0
n = -14 n = 12
Both these values are even and since we are not told if the number 'n' is positive or negative, both 12 and -14 are the possible values of n
First, let's find how many page's Greta read per day. She read a total of 900 pages across 15 days, so she read:
900 pages / 15 days = 60 pages/day
Now we can find how many pages she read per hour by dividing the 60 pages per day by 5 hours:
60 / 5 = 12 pages/hour
The answer is 12 pages.
