Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent , then

4x - 1 + 4 = 2x + x + 6 , that is

4x + 3 = 3x + 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x + 3 = 6 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = 3

Cammie can mow 1/2 acre in 25 minutes. If her rate is constant, Cammie says she can mow 1 1/4 acres in one hour. Is Cammie corre

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: No, Cammie is not correct. She can mow $1\frac{1}{5}\ acres$ in one hour (See explanation).

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the mixed number to an impoper fraction:

1. Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fraction and add the product to the numerator.

2. The denominator does not change.

Then:

$1\frac{1}{4}=\frac{(1*4)+1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}$

Let be "x" the acres Cammie can mow in one hour.

You know that she can mow $\frac{1}{2}\ acre$ in 25 minutes, then you can set up the following proportion (Remember that 1 hour has 60 minutes):

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{25}=\frac{x}{60}$

Solving for "x", you get:

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{25}=\frac{x}{60}\\\\(60)(\frac{1}{50})=x\\\\x=\frac{6}{5}$

Convert from improper fraction to mixed number:

1. When you divide 6 by 5, the quotient is 1. This will be the whole number part.

2. The remainder is 1. This will be the numerator.

3. The denominator does not change.

Then:

$x=1\frac{1}{5}$

Therefore, she can mow $1\frac{1}{5}\ acres$ in one hour.

Bob brings home 156.40 his gross is 184.00 what percentage do he bring home

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

85%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage we will have to start by dividing the amount he brings home by the gross.

156.4 / 184 = 0.85

By doing this, we get the answer in decimal form, which is not what we want.

Multiply it by 100 to convert it into a percent.

0.85 x 100 = 85.

Now, we know that he brings home 85% of his gross.
