N means 2 matches because half of 10 is 5 and they've won 3 matches so they need to win 2 more matches.
Answer:
11. It will take about 26 minutes to install a singular tile.
12. It will take about 10 more minutes to install a light than it does to install a cable.
Step-by-step explanation:
11. Since installing 15 new tiles took a total of 390 minutes and each tile took the same amount of time, you can divide the total amount of time by the number of tiles.
390/15= 26 minutes
It will take about 26 minutes to install a single tile.
12. By looking at the chart it can be assumed that installing a light takes about 22 minutes since it is in the middle of 20 and 24 minutes. Installing a cable only takes 12 minutes.
22-12= 10 minutes
It takes about 10 minutes longer to install a light than it does a cable.
So given a rectangle
sides are
_<u>x</u>_
x-5|__|x-5
x
the perimeter is 90 inches
perimeter is
x + x + (x-5) + (x-5) = 90
combine like terms
2x + 2(x-5) = 90
distribute
2x + 2x-10 = 90
combine like terms
4x - 10 = 90
add 10 to both sides
4x= 100
divide both sides by 4
x = 25
now to find the length of a side
x is 25
and x-5 is 20
to check and see if that's right:
25 + 25 + 20 + 20 =?= 90
50 + 40 =?=
90 = 90
Now to find the area
A = b * h
so
x * (x-5)
substitute
25* 20
500
The area of the rectangle is 500
Hope this helps :)
