Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

D) L=50 W=50

Step-by-step explanation:

Just "plug and chug" these numbers and see which doesn't work.

A is not it, 20+30=50 (then *2 because we need 4 sides not just 2) 50*2=100

B isn't it, 10+40=50*2=100

C ain't it either 49+1=50*2=100

D is the answer 50+50=100*2=200

Ben jogged 4 and 1/2 miles in 1 and 1/4 hours at a constant rate. How far did Ben jog in one hour? *

Mrac [35]

let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then proceed.

$\stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{9}{2}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{4}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{4}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\begin{array}{ccll} miles&hours\\ \cline{1-2} \frac{9}{2}&\frac{5}{4}\\[1em] x&1 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~ \frac{9}{2}~~}{x}=\cfrac{~~ \frac{5}{4}~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{~~ \frac{9}{2}~~}{\frac{x}{1}}=\cfrac{5}{4}\implies \cfrac{9}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{5}{4} \\\\\\ \cfrac{9}{2x}=\cfrac{5}{4}\implies 36=10x\implies \cfrac{36}{10}=x\implies \cfrac{18}{5}=x\implies 3\frac{3}{5}=x$
