Answer:

  2.  15 cents/min

  3.  7/4 gallon/week = 1.75 gal/wk

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to convert the units without changing the rate. You do this by making use of conversion factors. Each conversion factor has a value of 1, but changes the units. (It has a value of 1 because the quantity in the numerator is equal to the quantity in the denominator.)

In general, you know that when the numerator and denominator of a fraction are the same thing, they cancel, leaving a value of 1. When a variable (or unit) is involved, the cancelled variables (or units) simply disappear.

For example, multiplying (9 dollars)×(100 cents)/(1 dollar) gives ...

  (9\text{ dollar})\times\dfrac{100\text{ cents}}{1\text{ dollar}}=\dfrac{9\times100\times\text{cents}\times\text{dollar}}{1\times\text{ dollar}}=\dfrac{900\text{ cents}}{1}=900\text{ cents}

The units of "dollar" cancel, leaving cents. Note that we did this by choosing a conversion factor with units we want in the place we want, and units we don't want on the other side of the fraction bar.

__

2) We want cents in the numerator, so our conversion factor will be (100 cents)/(1 dollar). And we want minutes in the denominator, so our other conversion factor will be (1 hour)/(60 minutes). Multiplying by these conversion factors, our rate becomes ...

  \dfrac{\$9}{1\text{ hr}}\times\dfrac{100\text{ cents}}{\$1}\times\dfrac{1\text{ hr}}{60\text{ min}}=\dfrac{9\times100\times1\text{ cents}}{1\times1\times60\text{ min}}\\\\=\dfrac{900}{60}\cdot\dfrac{\text{cents}}{\text{min}}=\boxed{15\text{ cents/min}}

__

3) We want gallons in the numerator, so that conversion will be done by (1 gal)/(8 pt). We want weeks in the denominator, so the conversion for that is (7 day)/(1 week).

  \dfrac{2\text{ pt}}{1\text{ day}}\times\dfrac{1\text{ gal}}{8\text{ pt}}\times\dfrac{7\text{ day}}{1\text{ week}}=\dfrac{2\times1\times7}{1\times8\times1}\cdot\dfrac{\text{gal}}{\text{week}}=\boxed{\dfrac{7}{4}\text{ gal/week}}

A triangle has a perimeter of 90 centimeters write and use a linear system
lawyer [7]

We are given sides of the triangle by expression

First side : n

Second side : m = 5n-5.

Third side : l = 5/4 m - n.

Perimeter is 90.

Therefore, first equation could be set :

n +m +l = 90   --------------equation(1)

Second equation would be

m = 5n-5        --------------equation(2)

Third equation would be

l = 5/4 m - n   --------------equation(3)

Let us solve the system of equations by substitution.

Substituting m = 5n-5 and l = 5/4 m - n in first equation.

We get

n +5n-5 +5/4 m - n= 90

Now, substituting m = 5n-5 in above equation we get

n +5n-5 +5/4 (5n-5) - n= 90

5n + 25n/4 -5 - 25/4 =90

5n + 6.25n -5-6.25 = 90.

11.25n-11.25 = 90

Adding 11.25 on both sides, we get

11.25n-11.25+11.25 = 90+11.25

11.25n = 101.25.

Dividing both sides by 11.25, we get

n=9.

Plugging n=9 in 2nd equation.

m = 5(9)-5 = 45 -5 = 40.

Plugging n=9 and m=40 in first equation, we get

9 +40 +l = 90

49 +l = 90.

Subtracting 49 from both sides, we get

49-49 +l = 90-49

l = 41.

Therefore, sides are of lengths l = 41, m= 40 and n=9.
