5)15
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We need to see how many 8-miles are in 24 miles, than multiple it with 2in.
(24/8)*2=3*2=6in
2. Fist we calcue how many 17-feets are in 68feets, and multiple that with 1in.
(68/17)*1=4
3. We first see how many 3ins are in 9ins, and than multiple that with 9feet
(9/3)*9=3*9=27
4. First see how many 2ins are in 36ins, and then multiple it with 7.
(36/2)*7=18*7=126feet
5. See how many 15fts are in 75ft And than multiple it with 3.
(75/15)*3=5*3=15
Recall that A = 1/2bh.
We are given that h = 4+2b
So, putting it all together:
168 = 1/2 b(4+2b)
168 = 1/2(4b + 2b^2)
168 = 2b + b^2
b^2 + 2b - 168 = 0.
Something that multiplies to -168 and adds to 2? There's a trick to this.
Notice 13^2 = 169. So, it's more than likely in the middle of the two numbers we're trying to find. So let's try 12 and 14. Yep. 12 x 14 = 168. So this factors into (b+14)(b-12) So b = -14 or b =12. Is it possible to have a negative length on a base? No. So 12 must be our answer.
Let's check this. If 12 is our base, then according to our problem, 2*12 + 4 would be our height... or 28. so what is 12 * 28 /2?
196. Check.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
He reads 1/11 book in 2/5 hour.
A whole book is 11/11 of a book.
Multiply by 11.
He reads 11/11 book in 11 * 2/5 hour.
He reads 1 book in 22/5 hour.
22/5 hour = 4.4 hour = 4 hours and 24 minutes
two years at 3% = .03*2 = .06
so
.06 times original deposit = 72
so 72/.06
which is
1200
