Answer:
The easiest approach is to realise that one hour is 3 times longer than 20 minutes. The longer the time, the more they will pave.
215 of a mile, in 20 minutes, how much in 60 minutes?#
They will pave 3 times more.
215×31=615 of a mile
615=25 of a mile
You could also use the 'unitary method' where you find out how much they pave in ONE minute (divide by 20) and them multiply by 60 to find how much in one hour.
Look at what happens:
215÷20×60
=215×120×603
=215×3 ← exactly the same maths.
=25
Answer: :o I FINALLY MADE IT
(5, 2)
x = 5
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I graphed both equations. They meet at the points (5,2) and (2,5). Because y < 5, the solution is (5, 2)
<em>Hope it helps <3</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
factor 4 out of the variable terms, as this helps.
but my approach is simply to define the target and then calculate "backwards".
we want to find
(ax + b)² = a²x² + 2abx + b²
and now we compare with the original equation :
a²x² = 4x²
a² = 4
a = 2
2abx = 16x
2×2×bx = 16x
4b = 16
b = 4
b² = 16, but we have only 3, so we need to subtract 16-3 = 13 from the completed square.
so, our equation is
(2x + 4)² - 13 = 0
(2x + 4)² = 13
2x + 4 = sqrt(13)
2x = sqrt(13) - 4
x = sqrt(13)/2 - 2
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 5
b = -8
5 - -8 = 13
