When solving this equation you would need 12 drapes for 8 pairs

Steps for solving this equation:

Step One: 9÷6=1.5

1.5 for each pair of drapes, so if we have eight drapes we need to multiply 1.5 by 8.

Step Two: 1.5*8=12

ANSWER: 12 drapes

Spencer wants to burn 450 calories while biking. Biking burns about 10 calories per minute. When Spencer goes biking, he usually
kupik [55]

Answer:

The equation  to find the total number of minutes (including rest) that Spencer should plan to be out biking is 10(m-15)=450.

Spencer should plan for 60 minutes  to be out biking.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total calories need to burn = 450 calories

Calories burn per minute = 10

number of minutes he rest = 15

We need to find the total number of minutes (including rest) that Spencer should plan to be out biking.

Solution:

Let Total minutes of biking be 'm'.

So we can say that.

Calories burn per minute multiplied by the difference of total minutes and number of minutes he rest is equal to Total calories need to burn.

framing in equation form we get;

10(m-15)=450

Hence the equation  to find the total number of minutes (including rest) that Spencer should plan to be out biking is 10(m-15)=450.

On Solving the above equation we get;

First we will divide both side by 10 we get;

\frac{10(m-15)}{10}=\frac{450}{10}\\\\m-15=45

Now adding both side by 15 we get;

m-15+15=45+15\\\\m=60\ minutes

Hence Spencer should plan for 60 minutes  to be out biking.

A person drove 36 miles per hour on a trip. If he had driven 48 miles per hour he would have arrived 4 hours earlier. What was t
nlexa [21]

Answer:

d = 576

Step-by-step explanation

Think of the two different speeds as belonging to 2 different cars going to the same place, taking the same route and going to the same place.

Let the time traveled by the fast car = t

Let the time traveled by the slower car = t+4

Let the rate of travel of the slow car = 36 mph

Let the rate of travel of the fast car = 48 mph

===========

d = 36*(t + 4)

d = 48 * t

Since the distance is the same, they can be equated.

48t = 36(t + 4)           Remove the brackets.

48t = 36t + 144          Subtract 36t from both sides.

48t - 36t = 144           Combine

12t = 144                     Divide by 12

t = 144/12

t = 12

Therefore the faster car takes 12 hours to get where it is going.

d = 48 * t

d = 48 * 12

d = 576
