Answer:
3) 1 5/6 mi
4) a. 4 cm, 6 ft
b. 6.4 cm, 9.6 ft
c. same as part a
Step-by-step explanation:
3) Each of the given distances appears twice in the sum of side measures that is the perimeter. Hence by walking the perimeter twice, Kyle walks each of the given distances 4 times. His total walk is ...
4×1/3 + 4×1/8 = 4/3 + 4/8
= 1 1/3 + 1/2 = 1 2/6 + 3/6
= 1 5/6 . . . . . miles
___
4) Since the figure is rectilinear (all angles are right angles, and all sides are straight lines), the sum of partial dimensions in one direction is equal to the whole dimension in that direction.
a. 8 cm = 4 cm + x
8 cm - 4 cm = x = 4 cm
The distance in the room is ...
(4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 6 ft
b. 10.3 cm = 3.9 cm + y
10.3 cm - 3.9 cm = y = 6.4 cm
The distance in the room is ...
(6.4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 9.6 ft
c. The answer to part b was obtained in the same way as the answer to part a. The unknown dimension is the difference of given dimensions. The actual length in the room is the model length multiplied by the inverse of the scale factor.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
That's answer.
Answer:
7^12
Step-by-step explanation:
7^14
-----------
7^2
When we divide with the same base, we subtract the exponents
7^(14-2)
7^12
Answer:
1041.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a pyramid is V=b x h x 1/3 . b is the area of the base and h is the height. V=124 x 25.2 x 1/3 This can simplify to V=3124.8 x 1/3 . You could also just divide by 3. You will get 1041.6
Answer:
3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
$12 = 2hours
Find how much Clare was paid for one hour
Total money earned ÷ number of hours = wage per hour
12 ÷ 2 = $6 per hour
set up equation
6x = 18
This equation says 6 dollars an hour × number of hours = $18
To solve for this equation, divide both sides by 6 (this isolates the variable)
6x ÷ 6 = 18 ÷ 6
1x = 3
x = 3
