Step-by-step explanation:

here's your solution

=> time for Bettinia = 3.8 hrs

=> speed of her = 56 mph

=> distance covered by her = 3.8*56 = 212.8m

=> time for wills = 4.1 hrs

=> speed of wills = 52 mph

=> distance = 4.1 * 52 = 213.2m

=> wills covered more distance = 0.4 m

hope it helps

Identify the like terms in the list.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

17x and 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match. Unlike terms are two or more terms that are not like terms, i.e. they do not have the same variables or powers. The order of the variables does not matter unless there is a power.

108 is 36% of what number? Write and solve a proportion to solve the problem

kolezko [41]

Let the number = x

Then, it would be: (x*36)/100 = 108

x*36 = 10800

x = 10800/36

x = 300

The area of a room is 600 square feet. The length is (x + 5) feet and the width is (x + 4) feet. Find the dimensions of the room

tangare [24]

I'm going to assume that the room is a rectangle.

The area of a rectangle is A = lw, where l=length of the rectangle and w=width of the rectangle.

You're given that the length, l = (x+5)ft and the width, w = (x+4)ft. You're also told that the area, A = 600 sq. ft. Plug these values into the equation for the area of a rectangle and FOIL to multiply the two factors:
$A = lw\\
600 = (x+5)(x+4)\\
600 = x^{2} + 9x + 20
$

Now subtract 600 from both sides to get a quadratic equation that's equal to zero. That way you can factor the quadratic to find the roots/solutions of your equation. One of the solutions is the value of x that you would use to find the dimensions of the room:
$600 = x^{2} + 9x + 20\\
x^{2} + 9x - 580 = 0\\
(x + 29)(x - 20) = 0\\
x + 29 = 0, \:\: x - 20 = 0\\
x = -29, x = 20$

Now you know that x could be -29 or 20. For dimensions, the value of x must give you a positive value for length and width. That means x can only be 20. Plugging x=20 into your equations for the length and width, you get:
Length = x + 5 = 20 + 5 = 25 ft.
Width = x + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24 ft.

The dimensions of your room are 25ft (length) by 24ft (width).

A typical tip in a restaurant is 18% of the bill. If the bill is 150,what would the typical tip be

Natasha_Volkova [10]

You want to leave a 18% tip on a meal that cost $150.

First, convert the 18% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 18%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "18%" becomes 18% / 100% = 0.18 in terms of a real mathematical number.

Second, you need to find out what 18% of your $150 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.18 by $150.00, or

0.18 x $150.00=$27.00.

So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $27.00.

This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)

$150.00 + $27.00 = $177.00.

Would a yardstick be reasonable to measure the length of a canoe paddle

pishuonlain [190]

Most charts for the sizes of the canoe paddle give the sizes in units of inches. A yard is a unit of measure of length that is equal to 36 inches. Although some sizes of the canoes paddle torso are not greater than 36 inches, the yardstick can still be a reasonable measuring tool for bigger canoe paddles.
