Answer:
<em>Gerry arrived at the bus station at 12:30 P.M.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
From noon and 5:00 P.M. there are 5 hours.
Gerry, Dale, and Pat arrived at the bus stop within that interval, which means the sum of the times elapsed between their arrival times must be 5.
4 out of the 5 hours elapsed since Gerry and Dale's arrivals. This means there is only one hour left for twice x.
If twice x is one hour, then x is half an hour. Thus, the complete sequence of arrivals is:
Gerry arrived at the bus station at 12:30 P.M.
Dale arrived at the bus station at 4:30 P.M.
Pat arrived at the bus station at 5:00 P.M.
Answer:
15, 17, 19
Step-by-step explanation:
x + x+2 + x+4 = 15 + (x+2 + x+4)
3x + 6 = 15 + 2x + 21
x = 15
x+2 = 17
x+4 = 19
Answer:
5.4 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Figuring out the area of shapes like these are quite simple, you first have to break apart this shape to make solving this easier. If you draw a line and break off the triangle from the square you will get 2 different shapes. A square with all the sides being 2 inches, and a triangle that is 2 inches tall and 1.4 inches across (you subtract 3.4 by 2). Next you just use the equation (2 * 2) + ((1.4 * 2)/2). Multiply 2 by 2 (which is 4) and you get the area of the square (you multiply the base by the width). And for the triangle you multiple 1.4 by 2 (you get 2.8)... But because it's a triangle you have to divide that number by 2 since the triangle is half of a square. So 2.8 / 2 is going to be 1.4. After that you now have the equation 4 + 1.4 and the answer is going to be 5.4.
