Answer:

48.5

Step-by-step explanation:

53.5

48.5

5 tenths - 0 tenths = 5 tenths (.5)

3 minus 5, three smaller than 5 so BORROW 10 13 -5 = 8 (8)

the 5 in the tens position becomes a four because one got "borrowed"

4 - 0 = 4 (4)

48.5 is the result

48.5 is the answer.
Reason- an expression is an equation without an equal sign and this expression is saying 53.5 - 5.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: So first you have to make this word problem into a equation into standard form so 20 is our (y) because that is the additional charge but our slope is 3 because that is what they charge per hr **when they say (per) usually the member with it is the slope** (sry I’m not the best explainer)

Find the slope of this line.

natulia [17]

Answer:

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

SImply use slope formula. We see the graph has defined points at (5, 4), and (-5, -4).

m=(Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)

(4-(-4))/(5-(-5))=8/10

Simplify 8/10

=4/5

A car travels at constant speed for 7 days and covers 1500 miles. What is the speed in centimeters/minute? You may use the (appr

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Speed = 23809.52 cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A car travels at constant speed for 7 days and covers 1500 miles.

To find : What is the speed in centimeters/minute

Solution : Formula to find speed is

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$

Distance traveled = 1500 miles and time taken = 7 days

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{1500 miles}}{\text{7 days}}$

Now, we have to convert miles into centimeter and days into minutes.

1 day = 24 hours

1 hour= 60 minute

24 hr= 24×60 minute

1 day = 24×60 minute

7 days = 7×24×60 minute = 10,080 minute

Now, 1 mile = 8/5 km = 1.6 km

1 km= 100000 cm

1.6 km = 1.6 × 100000 cm

1 mile = 1.6 × 100000 cm

1500 miles = 1500×1.6 × 100000 cm = 240,000,000 cm

Put back the values into speed

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{1500 miles}}{\text{7 days}}$

$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{240,000,000 cm}}{\text{10,080 minute}}$

$\text{Speed}=\text{23809.523 cm/minute}$

Therefore, speed = 23809.52 cm/min

A rectangular field is fully enclosed with 218 meters of fencing. The length of the field is

mestny [16]

The length and width of a rectangular field fully enclosed with 218 metes fencing are 63 meters and 46 meters respectively.

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the whole four sides. Therefore, the perimeter of a rectangle is defined as follows:

perimeter = 2(l + w)

where

l = length

w = width

perimeter = 218 meters

The length of the field is 17 meters longer than the width, w. Therefore, the length is defined as follows:

l = 17 + w

The length and the width can be calculated as follows:

218 = 2(l + w)

218 = 2(17 + w + w)

218 = 34 + 4w

218 - 34 = 4w

184 = 4w

divide both sides by 4

w = 184 / 4

w = 46 meters

length = 17 + 46

length = 63 meters
