Answer:
63/50 meters^2 or in mixed number: 1 13/50 meters^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area= length * width
length = 4 1/5= 21/5 . Multiply the whole number with the denominator. 4*5= 20 . Add 20 with the numerator. 20+1=22
width= 3/10
21/5* 3/10 ( Multiply the denominators together). ( Multiply the numerators together).
21*3 / 5*10
She worked 30 hours per week.
The problem turns out to be the following:
2x+15=3x-15.
First you need to have only one x variable so you subtract the X's:
3x-2x=X
The problem now turns into 15=x-15.
You have to isolate the X so you do x+15. You have to do the same to the other side so 15+15=30, therefore x=30
You are correct in thinking that the columns of the first matrix must match with the rows of the second matrix.
So for example, we can multiply a 1 x 5 matrix with a 5 x 7 matrix. The two matching '5's are directly what make multiplication possible in this case. For your problem, the first two '3's match and multiplication is possible.
The rows of the first matrix don't need to match with the columns of the second matrix.
