Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it costs $3.75 for every earring, multiply e by 3.75 like this: 3.75e

Add 9.5 on top of that since Dani already bought the necklace for $9.50

3.75e + 9.5

This sum has to be less than or equal to 25 because the budget is $25

3.75e + 9.5 ≤ 25

To find e subtract 9.5 from both sides

3.75e + 9.5 ≤ 25

          - 9.5    - 9.5

3.75e ≤ 15.5

Divide both sides by 3.75

3.75e/3.75 = 15.5/3.75 = 4.133...

You can't buy 0.133 of an earring, so the max amount of earrings she can buy is 4.

The length of a rectangle is 6 centimeters less than twice its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 48 cm. What are the
fomenos

Answer:

the length is 12 and the width is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is always to assign letters to the variables.  We can call length L and width W.

Since all units are in cm, unit conversion is unnecessary.

Next, set up some equations.  L=2W-6 because of the first sentence of the problem.  Length times width equals area, so L*W=108.

Now that there are two equations and two variables, the next step is to solve the system.  I'm going to solve it by plugging in the right side of the first equation in for L in the second equation.  This gives me (2W-6)*W=108.  Distributing the W gives me 2W^2-6W=108, or W^2-3W-54=0.  Using the quadratic formula, I get that W=9.  Using the first equation, L=2*9-6=12.  So the length is 12 and the width is 9.

An auto travels at a rate of 25 km/hr for 4 minutes, then at 50 km/hr for 8 minutes, and finally at 20 km/hr for 2 minutes. find
ankoles [38]

We know that the formula for calculating distance is:

distance d = velocity v * time t

 

Calculating for each interval:

 

1: 25 km/hr for 4 minutes

d1 = (25 km / 60 min) (4 min) = 1.67 km

 

2: 50 km/hr for 8 minutes

d2 = (50 km / 60 min) (8 min) = 6.67 km

 

3: 20 km/hr for 2 minutes

d2 = (20 km / 60 min) (2 min) = 0.67 km

 

The total distance covered is:

d = d1 + d2 + d3

d = 1.67 + 6.67 + 0.67

d = 9 km

 

The average speed is:

s = 9 km (1000 m / km) / (14 min * 60 s / min)

s = 10.72 m / s
