Knowing she makes $9 for each 1 hour, you know that if you'd need to find how much she made after 4 hours, you would do 9(4), giving you the answer of $36.
With this knowledge, you can replace the 4 with h.
9(h)=P
The reason why it's such a simple equation is because it's per hour and nothing else is being increased, decreased, or changed.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
49.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Find all the areas and add them together
Base Rectangle : LxW = 14 x 12 = 168
Bases Triangles (2) 2x (8x12)/2 = 96
2 Lateral rectangles 14x10 =140 (double) = 280
Surface Area = 168 +96 + 280 = 544
You multiply 0.4 by 4.2 and that equals 1.68 so sumeet uses 1.68 gallons of gas in 4.2 hours.
