Answer:

2 pieces, 30ft each

Step-by-step explanation:

rope : 60ft long

we are trying to figure out how many equal pieces we can cut the rope into with the length of each piece to be the greatest possible integer:

if jason wants the length of rope to be the longest than the answer is 2, if he divides the length of 60 by 2, each piece will be 30 feet long. If he divides the rope by any number larger, each piece will be shorter than 30 feet, and he wants the piece to be the largest possible length.

The dance team traveled to a competition and traveled in two vans. The first van transported 2 adults and 5 students and cost $7
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost for adults be a

Let the cost for students be b.

The first van transported 2 adults and 5 students and cost $77. This will be:

2a + 5b = $77

The second van transported 2 adults and 7 students and cost $95. This will be:

2a + 7b = $95

2a + 5b = 77 ...... equation i

2a + 7b = 95 ........ equation ii

Subtract equation ii from I

-2b = -18

b = 18/2

b = $9

An student cost $9

Put the value of b into equation i

2a + 5b = 77

2a + 5(9) = 77

2a + 45 = 77

2a = 77 - 45

2a = 32

a = 32/2

a = 16

An adult costs $16

The area of a rectangle is 45 square inches. One dimension is 5 inches. What is the perimeter
professor190 [17]

Answer:

28 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, the area of a rectangle is base · height. Since we are given one of the sides already, you can make an equation to solve for the other value.

5 · x = 45

5x = 45

x = 9

A rectangle has two pairs of parallel sides, or in easier terms, two sets of sides that are the same. So, the perimeter is going to be two lengths plus two widths.

2 · 5 + 9 · 2 = 10 + 14 = 28
