<em>1/6 = 0.16 acres in 8 minutes. </em>
<em>--</em>
<em>0.16 ÷ 8 = 0.02 acres mowed in 1 minute.</em>
<em>--</em>
<em>(60 minutes in an hour)</em>
<em>0.02 x 60 = 1.2 acres mowed in an hour.</em>
<em>-- </em>
<em>1.2 is equal to 1 1/5, and jami needs to mow 1 1/2 acres.</em><em> so no, jami cannot mow 1 1/2 acres in an hour.</em>
First set up a proportion
240/160 = 320/200
Cross multiply and if the left equals the right it is similar.
Answer:
English statement 'two more than a number equivalent to Y' can be algebraically represented as:
Step-by-step explanation:
Two more than a number means we need to add 2 to a number.
- Let suppose the number be = x
- Two more than the number 'x' = x+2
- As it is stated that two more than a number equivalent to Y.
Equivalent means something is equal to the given expression.
- Mathematically, the 'equivalent' is represented by the symbol '='.
Thus, the English statement 'two more than a number equivalent to Y' can be algebraically represented as:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: just do it
Answer:
91
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the sides as ratios
s/28=78/24, solve for s
s/28=39/12
s=39/12*28
s=91
