Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I will first answer your question with the data you have provided, then offer two other ways to solve the problem with alternative data:

You have stated that 5 miles is approximately 8 kilometers. As a ratio this is 5 mi / 8 km

Now create a proportion :

5 mi / 8 km = X mi / 60 km

Miles is to kilometers as miles is to kilometers.

Now cross multiply to solve for X.

8 X = 300

X = 37.5 miles

There are several other ways we can answer this question

Naoya read a book cover to cover in a single session, at a rate of 55 pages per hour. After reading for 4 hours, he had 330 page
alina1380 [7]

She reads at 55 pages per hour for 4 hours so 55*4 = 220 pages so far. This means that she read 220 and had 330 left so 220 + 330 = 550 so the book is 550 pages. If she reads 55 pages per hour and there is a total of 550 pages, 550/55 = 10 hours to read the book.

Work out the value of A
Mkey [24]

Answer:

that is really so difficult ? what do you not understand here ? please let me know, if you need any further explanations.

you know what the perimeter is ? if it's the circumference, the way around the object. in other words, the distance you have to walk, when going along all sidelines of the object.

so the perimeter is the sum of of all side lengths.

56 = x - 1 + 3x + 3x + 1 = 7x

x = 8

that gives us the side lengths :

x - 1 = 7 cm

3x = 21 cm

3x + 1 = 22 cm

the formula for the area of a triangle

A = baseline × height / 2

the advantage of a right-angled triangle in this regard is that the sides enclosing the 90 degree angle are already "acting" as baseline and the height (standing on the baseline with a 90 degree angle).

so, we can simply say here, the 3x side is the baseline, and the x-1 side is also the height.

therefore,

A = 21×7/2 = 147/2 = 73.5 cm²

A wire 22 cm long is cut into two pieces. The longer piece is 4 cm longer than the shorter piece. Find the length of the shorter
guajiro [1.7K]
Answer:

Explanation: L = longer piece S = shorter piece

L + S = 22

L = 4 + S

S + S + 4 = 22
-4 -4
S + S = 18

S = 18/2 = 9 cm

L = 4 + S —> 4 + 9 = 13 cm

To confirm:

13 cm + 9 cm = 22 cm

Therefore, the shorter piece is 9 cm.
