Answer: 248 miles

Step-by-step explanation: The equation is x+2x+2x-60 where x is the mom and 2x is Dad and since dad drove 60 miles more than alex then Alex drove 60 miles less than dad so 2x -60 is alex. Altogether x+2x+2x-60 = 560 total miles driven and solved is x = 124 however x is just the mom. The dad drove twice as much so we have to double 124 or multiply by 2 to get the amount The dad drove which is 124*2= 248 miles

Which expression is equivalent to n + n - 0.18n?
horrorfan [7]

n + n - 0.18n

We can rewrite it as

2n - 0.18n

And if we solve it

(2 - 0.18)n = 1.82n

So the equivalente expression is B.

ACTIVITY 2 (19) Mr Duma recently inherited a rectangular plot, part of the estate left by his late father. The plot with the fol
seraphim [82]

The sum of the lengths of three sides of the rectangle, gives the length

of the fencing, while one third of the rectangle area is for the pavement.

Responses:

Project A: The formula for the length of the fencing is, L = 4·x - 1

Project B: Length of the fancy wall = 2·x + 1

Project \ C:Area \ of \ the \ paving = \underline{ \dfrac{2\cdot x^2 }{3} - \dfrac{x }{3}  - \dfrac{1}{3}}

<h3>Which method can be used to find the length and area of paving from the given equations?</h3>

Project A: Let QP and SR represent the longest sides of the rectangle, we have;

PQ = SR = 2·x + 1

Given parameters are;

Length of the rectangular plot = 2·x + 1

Width of the rectangular plot = x - 1

Vertices of the rectangular plot are; QPSR

Project A: Let QP and SR represent the longest sides of the rectangle, we have;

PQ = SR = 2·x + 1

Which gives;

SP = QR = x - 1

The length of the fencing, L = SP + PQ + QR = x - 1 + 2·x + 1 + x - 1 = 4·x - 1

  • The formula for the length of the fencing is, L =<u> 4·x - 1</u>

Project B: The front side is SR

Therefore;

  • Length of the fancy wall = <u>2·x + 1</u>

Project C:

Area, A = Length × Width

Area of the plot, A = (2·x + 1) × (x - 1) = 2·x² - x - 1

  • Area \ of \ the \ paving = \dfrac{1}{3} \times \left(2 \cdot x^2 - x - 1\right) = \underline{ \dfrac{2\cdot x^2 }{3} - \dfrac{x }{3}  - \dfrac{1}{3}}
