Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
First, set up the ratio of c:t, which is 12:8. Then set up your new ratio of c:t, which is 105:?. The way I find the easiest is to divide 105 by 12, which is 8.75, then multiply that by 8, which is 70. To check if it's right, just divide 12 by 8, and 105 by 70, and if they're the same number, you've got it right.
Ps. I'm guessing you meant to ask the minimum number of trucks, not cars.
Answer:
6y + 42
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve problems like this you can either graph or solve mathematically. To do the ladder we need to solve for one variable at a time. So lets cancel one variable out.
Multiply equation 1 by 2
This will give 4x-2y=14
Now we can get rid of y by subtracting 2 from 1
This will give x=9
Plug back in to either equation, i will use equation 2
3(9)-2y=5 simplify
-2y=-22 solve
Y=11
Answer:
594 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle is length times width. We can find the area of each workers plot by multiplying 9 and 11 to get 99 sq feet. There is six workers, and therefore six plots of land, so we'd take our 99 sq feet and count that six times to get 594 square feet.
