Why not write all of the numbers in decimal fraction form, to make them easier to compare?
68 2/3 = 68.666...
72 1/2 = 72.500
68 3/10 = 68.300
74 7/11 = 74.636...
68 1/2 = 68.500
550/8 = 68.750
Now ask yourself: Which of the last four numbers is between 68.666.. and 72.500?
Answer.....15ft by 12ft
Explanation:
Area = Length × Width
180 = LW....make W the subject of formula
;W = 180/L
Perimeter = 2L + 2W
54 = 2L + 2(180/L)...sub W with the formula above...
then simplify the equation and obtain...
2L^2 - 27L + 180 = 0....then solve using the quadratic formula....then obtain..
;L = 15ft....after obtaining L = 15...then substitute into the W = 180/L equation...
where W = 180/15 = 12ft
there you have...Length = 15ft and Width = 12ft
Smaller x = -2/5
Larger x = 5
Answer:
.15 * 60 = 9
$9
Step-by-step explanation:
Perform the indicated multiplications...
12x*x+12x*2-5*2x-5*(-1)
12x^2+24x-10x+5 combine like terms
12x^2+14x+5
