Answer:
<u>3</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 6 = 24
24 divided by 8 = <u>3</u>
<u>3</u> x 8 = 24
Jamal's score is 80
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Number of questions = 100
Let w be the number of wrong answers
Let r be the number of right answers
According to question,
r = 4w
r + w = 100
Solving both the equations we get:
4w + w = 100
5w = 100
w = 20
If w = 20 then r = 4 X 20 = 80
Therefore, Jamal's score is 80
Part (a)
<h3>Answer:
2(2.4+w) = 14.2</h3>
--------------
Explanation:
L = 2.4 = length
W = unknown width
The perimeter of any rectangle is P = 2(L+W)
We replace L with 2.4, and replace P with 14.2 to get 14.2 = 2(2.4+w) which is equivalent to 2(2.4+w) = 14.2
========================================================
Part (b)
<h3>Answer:
w = 4.7</h3>
--------------
Explanation:
We'll solve the equation we set up in part (a)
2(2.4+w) = 14.2
2(2.4)+2(w) = 14.2
4.8+2w = 14.2
2w = 14.2-4.8
2w = 9.4
w = 9.4/2
w = 4.7
The width must be 4.7 cm.
Answer:
18/100 or 9/50
Step-by-step explanation:
0.18 = 0.18/1
times 100 then 18/100
divided by 2 then 9/50
Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.
b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c
The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph
