Answer:
3.12
Step-by-step explanation:
75-5(2×6)
75-5×12×
-60×+75
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>

We don’t know the value of the shorter side, so we will categorize it as x. Side 2 is just 4 feet longer than x, so we would add 4 on to it. Side 3 has double the x, so we would multiply it be 2 for 2x, and subtract the 4 feet from it.
Side 1: x
Side 2: x + 4
Side 3: 2x - 4
If the perimeter is 64 feet, then all of the sides have to add up to it. Therefore, first we add all of the side lengths up:
x + x + 4 + 2x - 4 = 4x.
Now we put 4x, the amount of all these sides added up, equal to the perimeter of 64.
4x = 64. Divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself.
x = 16.
Now that we know x is 16, we will substitute it in for all the side lengths’ equations.
We know that Side 1 was just x, so that will be 16. Since Side 2 was 4 more than x, we’d do 16 + 4 = 20. We substitute 16 in for x in Side 3’s equation: 2(16) - 4 = 32 - 4 = 28.
Therefore, the final lengths of all the sides are:
Side 1: 16
Side 2: 20
Side 3: 28
The answer to that would be B
