Answer:
I believe it is X * 2 + 5 = Jim's total
Step-by-step explanation:
X is the amount of hours Kelly reads and multiplying X by 2 is how you find Tim's total. Then to find Jim's total you add 5 because that's how many more hours he reads than Tim.
Answer:
88.46%
Step-by-step explanation:
433 - 383 = 50
50 ÷ 433 = 0.1154
0.1154 x 100 = 11.54%
100% - 11.54% = 88.46%
<u>Check work:</u>
433 x 88.46% = 383
Area for a triangle is (1/2) bh or bh/2
So using this info, b = 1.5 m and h = x and A = 1.5 m^2
A = bh/2
1.5 = 1.5x/2
Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of fraction ... 3 = 1.5x
Divide both sides by 1.5 ... 2 = x so x= 1.5 m
8/24 = x / 48
cross multiply
(24)(x) = (8)(48)
24x = 384
x = 384/24
x = 16 <===
