5/8 acre of land ... 1/4 hour
x acres of land = ? ... 1 hour

If you would like to know how many acres of land can the sprinkler system water in 1 hour, you can calculate this using the following steps:

5/8 * 1 = 1/4 * x
5/8 = 1/4 * x       /*4
x = 5/8 * 4
x = 5/2 = 2.5 = 2 1/2 acres of land

The correct result would be 2 1/2 acres of land.

2x - 6 = 18
2x = 18 + 6 (24)
2x = 24
x = 12

<span>3x + 9 = 2x + 24
3x + 9 = 2x + 24 - 9 (2x + 15)
3x = 2x + 15
3x - 2x = 15
x = 15

</span><span>4x = 2.4? 0.4x = 2.4? I can't tell what the question is. Let me know in the comments and I'll answer it.
</span>
<span>5x + 4 = 24
5x = 24 - 4 (20)
5x = 20
x = 4

</span><span>2x / 3 = 4
2x = 4 * 3 (12)
x = 6

</span><span>3(x + 7) = 51
3x + 21 = 51
3x = 51 - 21 (30)
3x = 30
x = 10

Hope I helped :)</span>

Problem page the length of a rectangle is four times its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 70 cm , find its area.
agasfer [191]
So we can call the width of the rectangle x.
So then the length would be 4x.
The perimeter would then be 10x.
Since the perimeter is 70, we can say 70 = 10x.
And then simplify that to 7 = x.
So the length of a rectangle would be 28 cm, and the width would be 7.
So to find the area, just multiply length by width.
28*7 = 196 square cm
So the rectangle's area is 196 square cm.

I hope I helped!
