Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is how we do it in college, I hope I can be of some help.
First, you multiple 9.6 miles with 5 minutes. Then, you divide your answer with 0.4 miles. Next, you cancel the two mile units because of division and then be left with 120 minutes.
9.6 miles x <u> 5 minutes </u> = <u> 48 miles x minute </u> = 120 minutes
0.4 miles 0.4 miles
Let m and h represent hours Mai spends mowing and hauling, respectively. Then (m+h) will be the number of hours Priya spends babysitting. In order for their earnings to be equal, we must have
7m +14h = 8.40(m+h)
Subtract 7m+8.40h: 5.60h = 1.40m
Divide by 1.40: m = 4h
Then the total number of hours worked by either person is
m + h = (4h) +h = 5h
When only whole numbers of hours are worked, the smallest number of hours that will make earnings equal is 5h, with h=1, or 5 hours. In that time, each will earn 5×$8.40 = $42.
Therefore, each of them must work 5 hours and earn $42 before they go to the movies and Mai will work 4 hours mowing and 1 hour hauling.
Answer:
therefore the side of the square is 2x + 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) let the side of the square be a
ii) therefore the perimeter of the square = 4a
iii) therefore 4a = 8x + 20
iv) therefore a = 2x + 5
therefore the side of the square is 2x + 5.
Answer:
B. -8
Step-by-step explanation:
F(x) = 2x
F(-4) = 2(-4) = -8
Answer:
x<-2
Step-by-step explanation:
12x>6x+12-15 (first distribute)
12x>6x-3 (simplify)
6x>-3 (put like terms on one side by subtraction)
x<-2 (divide and switch inequality sign since you divided by a negative)
