You can cross multiply to find the answer. Start by setting up your equation:
45/30 = 60/x (30 represents half an hour)
Next, cross multiply, 45 times x, and 60 times 30:
45x = 1800 you must isolate the "x" value by using the opposite operation it is involved in. Here we have 45x (x is multiplied to 45) so we must divide 45, which will cancel itself out, leaving us with "x."
What you do on one side of the equation, you must do on the other, so divide 1800 by 45 as well, which will leave you with 40.
Working it out on paper, your equation should now look like this: x=40, which represents the amount of time it will take to fill a 60 gallon tube.
Answer: It will take 40 minutes to fill a 60 gallon tube.
Answer: 0.567
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-33/4 or -8 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Make similar terms:
-5/4 - 28/4: then solve
-5 - 28 = -33: put over 4
-33/4: simplify
-8 1/4
Adjacent angles are angles with a common side and vertex, linear pairs are adjacent angles that are supplementary, and vertical angles are angles made by the same two lines but on opposite sides.
For the first one, 5 and 6 clearly do not share a side but they are made up by the same 2 lines and are opposite of each other, making them vertical.
For the next one, since the angles only share 1 line (and not a side) they can't be any of the above.
Given:
Cost of small candles = $4.00
Cost of large candles = $6.00
They have at most 50 candles, and want to make at least $100.
To find:
The system of linear inequalities represents the situation.
Solution:
Let x be the number of small candles and y be the number of large candles.
At most 50 candles means total candles must be less than or equal to 50.
Want to make at least $100. It means, the total sales must be greater than or equal to $100.
Therefore, the inequalities in the system of linear inequalities are and .
