Area of the parallelogram = 20 x 16 = 320
Area of the triangle on top = 1/2 x 20 x 8 = 80
Total = 320 + 80 = 400 square inches
Answer:
m+g
40
12m + 14g
250
Step-by-step explanation:
Jordan is paid $12 per hour for mowing lawns and $14 per hour for planting gardens.
Let m represents the number of hours mowing lawns and g represents the number of hours planting gardens.
He can work a maximum of 40 hours per week, and would like to earn at least $250 this week.
Then, the system of the inequality becomes
m+g
40
12m + 14g
250
10*350= 3500
Total amount paid- 1500+3500= 5000
So an amount of $5000 was paid to cover the cost of $4500 within the 10 month period.
So you answer is A. 33%
Line YZ is the midsegment of triangle QRS because it connects the midpoints of lines QR and RS. We would solve for x by appying the midsegment theorem which states that the midsegment is half the length of the third side or base. This means that
YZ = 1/2(QS)
x + 2 = 1/2 * (3x - 8)
2(x + 2) = 3x - 8
By opening the parenthesis, we have
2x + 4 = 3x - 8
Collecting like terms, we have
3x - 2x = 4 + 8
x = 12
Option C is correct
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4x + 6) = 8x + 12
3(x - 1) = 3x -3
8x + 12 = 3x - 3
5x = -15
x = -3
