Time = 11/2 = 5 1/2
Road = 4 1/2 miles
Speed = 5 1/2 : 4 1/2 = 1 2/9 <------------answer
Answer:
x= -2/3 y+4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for x.
3x+2y=12
Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.
3x+2y+−2y=12+−2y
3x=−2y+12
Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.
3x
3
=
−2y+12

Since, each side of the fence should have the 1 3/4 feet wide decorative piece, the width of the fence should be subtracted by 2 pieces (1 3/4 feet)
= 26.5 feet
Then, divide the remaining width by 4.5 feet and the answer is 5.88. Thus, approximately 5 pieces of the 4 1/2 feet should be installed.
