Answer:
C. y = 50x + 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
100 miles in 2 hours is 100/2 = 50 miles per hour. Multiplying that rate by x hours gives the miles traveled in addition to the 3.5 miles so far. The appropriate equation for miles traveled is ...
y = 50x +3.5 . . . matches choice C
40 feet or 13 yards and 1 foot
using the conversion
1 yard = 3 feet then 1 yard 2 feet = 5 feet ← material for 1 pillow, hence
8 pillows require 8 × 5 = 40 feet
Answer:
So the numbers are 12 and -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem we will attribute variables to the numbers, the first one will be "x" and the second one will be "y". From the first sentence we know that the subtraction of the two numbers is equal to 15, so we have:
x - y = 15
Then the problem states that one-third of the sum of the number is equal to one quarter of the first number, so we have:
(1/3)*(x+y) = x/4
Since we now have two equations and two variables we can solve for x and y. From the first equation we have:
y = x - 15
Using this expression for the value of y in the second equation:
(1/3)*(x + x - 15) = x/4
(1/3)*(2*x - 15) = x/4
2*x - 15 = 3*x/4
2*x - 3*x/4 = 15
(8*x - 3*x)/4 = 15
5*x/4 = 15
5*x = 60
x = 60/5 = 12
y = x - 15 = 12 - 15 = -3
So the numbers are 12 and -3.
Answer:
D. 972 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
SA = 2B + PH
where SA = total surface area of the prism,
B = area of a base
P = perimeter of the base
H = height of the prism
SA = 2 * bh/2 + (15 ft + 12 ft + 9 ft)(24 ft)
SA = (9 ft)(12 ft) + (15 ft + 12 ft + 9 ft)(24 ft)
SA = 972 ft^2
