Maybe, 2 x 4 then 8 x 4 =
answer = 32
=600(1+0.1/2)^8
Use the calculator to get the answer :-)
Draw a square with side length of 4. All four angles are 90 degrees and all four sides are 4.
Then draw a rectangle with length of 9 and with of 2. All four angles would be 90 degrees, but the proportion of the 2 sides are different when compared to the sides of the square.
5x + 4x = 720
9x = 720 (divide by 9)
X= 80
In order to get the bigger ratio, which is 5, you would substitute x for 80. (I'm bad at explaining)
Work:
5(80)= 400
Set up the equation ... 60 + 40X = total charges... where X is the number of hours (8.5)
60 + 40(8.5) = ?
60 + 340 = ?
400 = total charges
