Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

AB and DC are parallel to each other, so they are the same length. Set their lengths equal to each other and solve for x

4x = 7x - 9

4x - 7x = 7x - 7x -9

-3x = -9

-3x/-3 = -9/-3

x = 3

Now solve for AB.

AB = 4x

AB = 4(3)

AB = 12

Jami can mow acre 1/6 in 8 minutes If her rate is constant, can Jami mow 1 1/2 acres in one hour? Explain your reasoning
LenaWriter [7]
Time taken by Jami to mow 1/6 acres is 8 minutes=8/60=2/15 hours.
Rate at which Jami is mowing will be:
rate=(number of acres)/(time)=(1/6)/(2/15)
=1/6÷2/15
=1/6×15/2
=5/4 acres/hour
=1.25 acres/hour
From above calculations we conclude that Jami cannot mow 1.5 acres in 1 hour
