Let jena take x hours to mow the lawn on her own.- then we can write the equation
1/x + 1/4x = 1 / 44
44 + 11 = x
x = 55
x takes 55 hours to mow the lawn
101 with a remainder of 12
Answer:
F. 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the long side to the short side is the same in similar triangles. The long side of triangle BAD is AD, which has length 20-4 = 16.
BD/DE = AD/BD
h/4 = 16/h
h^2 = 64 . . . . . . . multiply by 4h
h = 8 . . . . . . . . . . take the square root (matches selection F)

<em>Comment on this geometry</em>
BD = √(AD·DC) is called the "geometric mean" of the segments AD and DC. This geometry has some other geometric mean relationships as well:
BC = √(AC·DC)
BA = √(AC·AD)
Well for starters that would be $108/6 weeks when a unit rate is anything over one. To put it as a unit rate (how many dollars per hours) you just divide $108 by 6 (since you would divide 6 by 6 to get) and the unit rate would end up being $18 per hour.
To get your answer, you would divide your distance by your speed. You should be going about 1.4 miles per hour.
