Answer:
1. 1 < 8
2. 7 > -17
3. n-6 (N could be 7)
4. -4 x 3= -12
5. -5/5= -1 since the sign means greater than or equal to, that could be right.)
6. 3>Z (1) - 1
Because, if 6 + 6 = 12, then in 6 + 7, 7 can be splitted into 6 + 6 + 1, and so you find it easier...!!
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Scott will need 168 ft² of pavers to cover his patio
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Scott wants to cover a trapezoid-shaped patio
<u>This means that:</u>
To get the number of square feet of pavers he'll need, we need to get the area of his patio
<u>Area of trapezium id calculated as follows:</u>

<u>We are given that:</u>
base₁ = 11 ft
base₂ = 13 ft
height = 14 ft
<u>We now substitute with the givens to get the area as follows:</u>

<u>This means that:</u>
Scott will need 168 ft² of pavers to cover his patio
Hope this helps :)
Let's define variables:
s = original speed
s + 12 = faster speed
The time for the half of the route is:
60 / s
The time for the second half of the route is:
60 / (s + 12)
The equation for the time of the trip is:
60 / s + 60 / (s + 12) + 1/6 = 120 / s
Where,
1/6: held up for 10 minutes (in hours).
Rewriting the equation we have:
6s (60) + s (s + 12) = 60 * 6 (s + 12)
360s + s ^ 2 + 12s = 360s + 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s = 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s - 4320 = 0
We factor the equation:
(s + 72) (s-60) = 0
We take the positive root so that the problem makes physical sense.
s = 60 Km / h
Answer:
The original speed of the train before it was held up is:
s = 60 Km / h
13x=8x+25
5x=25
X=5
5 is the answer
