60=5k
Is the equation because the word 'is' means equals, so we add an equal sign after the 60. "Five times greater" simply means multiply so we multiply 5 and k.
Then to solve the equation, you would need to divide both sides by 5 to isolate the variable
60/5=5k/5
12=k
I hope this helped!
We have that
1 1/2 acres-------------> 1.5 acres
one hour----------------> 60 minutes
Step 1
I proceed to make a rule of three
<span>if Jami can now mow 1/6 acre -----------------------> in 8 minutes
1.5 acres----------------------------------------------> X
X=1.5*8/(1/6)=72 minutes
72 minutes > 60 minutes
therefore
</span><span>Jami can not mow 1 1/2 acres in an hour
</span><span>The time required by jami to mow 1 1/2 acres is 72 minutes</span><span>
</span>
B........................
The probability is 1/4
This is because:
Probability of first tails = 1/2
Probability of second tails = 1/2
Probability of first AND second tails = 1/2 * 1/2
= 1/4
This is also visible in the set of outcomes
