Y= 10x
y: number of cm
x: number of mm
Answer: 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be represented by x.
Two less than three times a number is the same as six more than twice the number. This will be:
(3 × x) - 2 = (2 × x) + 6
3x - 2 = 2x + 6
Collect like terms.
3x - 2x = 6 + 2
x = 8.
The number is 8
Let a₁ , a₂ , a₃ , a₄ ,... .be a given sequence.
The common ratio of this sequence is the following:
a₂/a₁ = a₃/a₂ = a₄/a₃ = r
Example: 5, 25, 125, 625, ...The common ration is:
25/5 = 125/25 = 625/125 = 5. So r=5 is the common ratio
Answer:
1. 1.5 inches per minute
2. 90 inches per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
speed = 
1. total distance covered =
+ 
= 
= 
= 4
inches
Total time taken =
+ 
= 
= 
= 3 minutes
The ants average speed = 
= 1
= 1.5
The ants speed is 1
inches per minute.
2. Since;
60 minutes = 1 hour
3 minutes = x hours
x = 
= 
= 0.05 hours
Speed = 
= 90 inches per hour
The red ants speed is 90 inches per hour.
