Answer:

¹/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rug = s²

Where s = 2 m

Area of the rug = 2² = 4 m²

Area of the rectangular carpet = length × width

Where,

Length = 12 m

Width = 5 m

Area = 12 × 5 = 60 m²

Fraction of the carpet covered by the rug = area of the rug ÷ area of the carpet = 4/60 = ¹/15

2(21x − 7) + 4(3x + 2) = 6(2x + 9) + 3
42x - 14 + 12x + 8= 12x + 54 + 3
54x - 6= 12x + 57
54x=12x + 63
42x=63
x= 63/42
x= 3/2

Solve the system of inequalities:<br> 6y≥42<br> 4y+12≤0
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

6y≥42

Divide each side by 6

6y/6≥42/6

y≥7

Then solve the second one

4y+12≤0

Subtract 12 from each side

4y+12-12≤0-12

4y ≤-12

Divide each side by 4

4y/4 ≤-12/4

y ≤-3

There is no solution since there is no overlap
