The answer is 3x-3. You have to distribute the 3 to both of the variables in the equations. The 1 in the parentheses is a negative and multiplying the 3 will result in a negative 3.
15:4.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 hour = 60 min
3 hours = 60 x 3 = 180 min
Ratio:
180/48
Simplest form 15/4
Therefore, the simplest form of the ratio will be 15:4
Total number of seniors = 55 + 70 = 125
Number of seniors who plan to go to college = 55
Percentage of seniors who plan to go to college = 55/125 x 100 = 44%
Answer: 44%
Step-by-step explanation:
the surface area consists of 6 individual areas :
front and back (both are equal)
left and right (both are equal)
top and bottom
front and back are trapezoids.
the area of a trapezoid is
(base 1 + base 2)/2 × h
the bases are the 2 parallel sides.
in our case the area of one trapezoid is
(5 + 19)/2 × 12.1 = 145.2 ft²
front and back together then are 290.4 ft².
left and right are 8×14 rectangles:
8×14 = 112 ft²
together they are 224 ft².
the bottom is a 5×8 rectangle :
5×8 = 40 ft²
the top is a 19×8 rectangle :
19×8 = 152 ft²
so, the total surface area is
290.4 + 224 + 40 + 152 = 706.4 ft²
