<h3>Given</h3>
- room height is x feet
- room length is 3x feet
- room width is 3x feet
- a door 3 ft wide by 7 ft tall
<h3>Find</h3>
- The net area of the wall, excluding the door
<h3>Solution</h3>
The area of the wall, including the door, is the room perimeter multiplied by the height of the room. The room perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the four walls.
... gross wall area = (3x +3x +3x +3x)·x = 12x²
The area of the door is the product of its height and width.
... door area = (7 t)×(3 ft) = 21 ft²
Then the net wall area, exclusive of the door is ...
... net wall area = gross wall area - door area
... net wall area = 12x² -21 . . . . square feet
Answer:
135 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
y -----> the number of pages to finish reading the book
x ----> the number of hours
we know that
The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

where
m is the unit rate or slope of the linear equation
b is the y-intercept or initial value
In this problem we have
<em>Xanthia</em>


----> the slope is negative because is a decreasing function
For y=0
substitute and solve for x


---> Xanthia's time to finish reading the book
<em>Molly</em>


----> the slope is negative because is a decreasing function
For y=0


--- Molly's time to finish reading the book
To find out how many more minutes than Xanthia would it take for Molly to finish reading the book, subtract Xanthia's time from Molly's time

Convert to minutes
Multiply by 60
