Answer:
4 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of 7k "minutes past nine" is the same as 8k" minutes to ten".
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour and 9 and 10 fall in between the same hour, this means that:
7k = 60 - 8k
7k + 8k = 60
15k = 60
k = 60 / 15
k = 4 minutes
Area of fountain is 147.58 and area of path is 28.26
Answer: 0.475 cups of broth per serving.Explanation:1) Ratio given: i) To facilitate the operations, transform the mixed number 4 3/4 cups into improper fraction:
4 + 3/4 = [16 + 3] / 4 = 19 / 4
ii) ratio broth: servings
2) Proportion with the unknown number of cups of broth per serving:
3) Solve for the unknown:x = [19 / 4] cups × 1 serving / 10 servings = 19 / 40 cups = 0.475 cups
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
Answer:
-20/13 <g
Step-by-step explanation:
-7–5(3g+8)<10g–7+g
Distribute
-7–15g-40<10g–7+g
Combine like terms
-15g - 47 < 11g -7
Add 15 g to each side
-15g+15g -47< 11g+15g -7
-47 < 26g -7
Add 7 to each side
-47+7 < 26g-7+7
-40 < 26g
Divide each side by 26
-40/26 <26g/26
-40/26 <g
Divide top and bottom by 2
-20/13 <g
