Suppose length is X -----> [1]
so the width is X - 5 -----> [2]

perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length + width )
50 = 2 ( X + X - 5 )
50 = 2 ( 2X - 5 )
50 = 4X - 10
50 + 10 = 4X
60 = 4X
60/4 = X
15 = X

subsitute in [1] and [2]
length = 15 meters
width = 15 - 5 = 10 meters

Angie has to fill in a reading log for her English class. She is required to read a total of 10 and 5 over six hours a week. On
JulijaS [17]

Given:

She is required to read a total = 10\dfrac{5}{6} hours a week.

Monday she read 1\dfrac{1}{3} hours.

Tuesday she read \dfrac{3}{4} of an hour.

Thursday she read 3 hours.

To find:

The total hours does she still need to read in order to get full credit.

Solution:

Total time = 10\dfrac{5}{6} hours a week.

Total time she already read =1\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{3}{4}+3 hours

                                              =\dfrac{1\times 3+1}{3}+\dfrac{3}{4}+3 hours

                                              =\dfrac{4}{3}+\dfrac{3}{4}+3 hours

                                              =\dfrac{16+9+36}{12} hours

                                              =\dfrac{61}{12} hours

Now,

Remaining time = Total time - Total time she already read

                         =10\dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{61}{12}

                         =\dfrac{65}{6}-\dfrac{61}{12}

                         =\dfrac{130-61}{12}

                         =\dfrac{69}{12}

                         =\dfrac{23}{4}

                         =5\dfrac{3}{4}

Therefore, the required time is  5\dfrac{3}{4} hours.

Can someone please show me the steps to solving this problem please? Many thanks!
Soloha48 [4]

Step 1: Assign variable for the unknown that we need to find.

Let x be the number of 350 ml bottles that you should bring from the supply room.

Step 2: Use the statement given to write a mathematical equation.

Given: 30 liter drum of fertilizer

Convert the liters to milliliters

1\;L = 1000\; mL\\\\30\;L=30 \times 1000\; mL=30,000\;mL\\\\

"The owner of the plant nursery where you work tells you to fill 350 milliliter bottles from a 30 liter drum of fertilizer" means we need to find how many 350 ml are there in 30,000 ml.

x=\frac{30000}{350}

Step 3: Simplify and round up to the next whole number.

\frac{30000}{350} \approx 86 \; bottles

Conclusion:

<u>Eighty Six </u>bottles with a capacity of 350 milliliter you should bring from the supply room to fill from a 30 liter drum of fertilizer!
