Given:
Total number of problems = 24
Michael completed
of his homework in
of an hour.
To find:
What fraction of his homework would he complete in one hour.
Solution:
We have,
Part of work done in
of an hour 
Part of work done in an hour 

Therefore, he complete
of his homework in 1 hour. Hence, all options are incorrect.
Answer:8x3/5=4.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 2x^2-7x-15
Step-by-step explanation:
reorder the terms (x*2+3)*(x-5)
multiply the parentheses
(2x+3)*(x-5)
collect like terms (2x^2-10x+3x-15)
product= 2x^2-7x-15
<u>Answer:</u>
The length of a paper clip chain is directly proportional to the number of paper clips. If a chain with 65 paper clips has a length of 97.5 inches then the length of chain with 14 paper clips is 21 inches.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that the length of a paper clip chain is directly proportional to the number of paper clips. Directly propotional means when the length of paper clip increases, then the number of paper clips also increases in same ratio.
Hence, by above definition, we get
------- eqn 1
From question, for a chain with 65 paper clips has a length of 97.5 inches, we get

Similarly, for a chain with 14 paper clips with length to be found, we get

Now by using eqn 1, we can calculate the length of 14 paper clips is,

Rearranging the terms we get,


Hence the length of chain with 14 paper clips is 21 inches.
