1 fathom = 6 feet
2 1/2 fathoms = x feet
2 1/2 fathoms • 6 feet = x feet
x = 15
2 1/2 fathoms = 15 feet
Answer:
d is the correct answer to this question
Perimeter = Side + Side + Side
Side 1 = x
Side 2 = x + 7
Side 3 = 2x-7
Plug into the equation:
84 = x + (x + 7) + (2x-7)
84 = x + x + 7 + 2x - 7
Combine like terms:
84 = 4x
Divide by 4 and solve for x:
21 = x
Side 1 = 21
Side 2 = 28
21+7=28
Side 3 = 35
21(2) - 7 = 42 - 7 = 35
150.60 divided by 5/6 is 180.72.
Just substitute r with 357 and solve.
= 1/7(357) + 3(1/7(357))
= 51 + 3(51)
= 51 + 153
= 204
Therefore, Eliza read 204 in those 3 days.
Best of Luck!
