Question

Aunt Polly asked Tom to paint the entire fence, but he painted

Answer 1

Every half hour Sid paints 6 yards, so by 4:30 PM he will have painted 62 yards.

Linear equations

To show the relationship between T and P, where P is the number of yards of painted fence, the following calculation must be performed:

• 12:30 - 12:00 = 14 - 8 /// 0.30 = 6
• 14:00 - 12:30 = 32 - 14 /// 1:30 = 18
• 14:30 - 14:00 = 38 - 32 /// 0:30 = 6
• 16:30 - 14:30 = 2 x 12 = 24
• 38 + 24 = 62

Therefore, every half hour Sid paints 6 yards, so by 4:30 PM he will have painted 62 yards.
