The answer is 3 1/2 or in decimal form it is 3.5
Choice C, because
So it's less than what she originally had (which isn't possible)
The parameter of a rectangle can be alculated using the following rule:
parameter = 2(length + width)
from the givens:
length = 13 inches
width = 10 inches
so, just substitute with the givens in the equation to calculate the parameter:
parameter = 2(10+13) = 2*23 = 46 inches
Answer:
Claire must work 4 hours cleaning tables and 5 hours washing cars to earn more than $ 90.
Since Claire is working two summer jobs, making $ 7 per hour washing cars and making $ 15 per hour clearing tables, and in a given week, she can work at most 9 total hours and must earn a minimum of $ 90, to determine one possible solution the following calculation must be performed:
15 x 9 = 135
135 - 90 = 45
45/7 = 6.42
6 x 7 + 3 x 15 = 42 + 45 = 87
5 x 7 + 4 x 15 = 35 + 60 = 95
Therefore, at a minimum, Claire must work 4 hours cleaning tables and 5 hours washing cars to earn more than $ 90.
In reality your common denominator should be the Least Common Multiple. The LCM is the product of highest occurring primes of the numbers prime factorizations...
4=2*2, and 12=2*2*3. So the LCM is 2*2*3=12 Now that you know what the least common multiple is we can say that:
(3/4)(3/3)+5/12
9/12+5/12
(9+5)/12
14/12
7/6 which should be converted to a mixed number as this is an improper fraction...
(6+1)/6
1+1/6
1 1/6
