The correct way to write this equation is .25x-3=12. The .25 is interchangeable with \frac{1}{4}

Start first with the coefficient of x, which will be 1/4 as you want to find 1/4 of x. Now, minus 3 to that to give you 3 fewer than 1/4x. You know this equates to 12, so your expression is:
1/4x - 3 = 12
Or you can write it like this if you want to use brackets:
1/4(x-12)=12

Jenny can swim 10 laps In 5 minutes. How many laps should she swim in 1/3 of an hour?
DIA [1.3K]

1/3 of an hour is 20 minutes. If show 10 laps in 5 minutes, just divide 20 by 5, which gives you 4, then multiply 4 times 10. She can swim 40 laps in 1/3 of an hour. Hope that helps. Mark Brainliest if it does. Thank you!

In the figure, BC is a support for the roof<br> of a garage. What is the length of BC?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Bc = √63 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the length of BC

As we can see, there is a right angled triangle ABC, with 12ft being the hypotenuse and 9 ft the other side

So we want to get the third leg which is BC

we can use the Pythagoras’ theorem here

And that states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

let the missing length be x

12^2 = x^2 + 9^2

144 = x^2 + 81

x^2 = 144-81

x^2 = 63

x = √63 ft
