The time from 1 to 4 is 3 hours. (1-2, 2-3, 3-4).

The height you climbed is 1200 feet.

1200/3 is 400.

Your final answer should be 400ft/h

What is the perimeter, P, of a rectangle that has a length of x + 5 and a width of y − 1?

Helen [10]

Answer:P=2x + 2y + 8

Step-by-step explanation: Perimeter (p) =2L+ 2w

P= 2(x+5)+2(y-1)

Remove bracket

P=2x+ 10 +2y - 2

P=2x+2y+8

A van travels 260 miles on 13 gallons of gas. Find how many gallons the van needs to travel 500 miles?

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

25 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming miles-per-gallon is a constant, the amount of gas is proportional to the miles driven:

gallons/(500 mi) = (13 gal)/(260 mi)

gallons = (500 mi)/(260 mi)(13 gal) . . . . multiply by 500 mi

gallons = 25 gal . . . . do the arithmetic

The van will need 25 gallons of gas to go 500 miles.

Factorize this expression completely <br>using (a-b)² formula<br>3a²- 36a + 108

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

$3a^2 - 36a + 108 = (\sqrt{3}a - 6\sqrt{3} )^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3a^2 = (\sqrt{3} a)^2\\108 = 9 \times 4 \times 3= 3^2 \times 2^2 \times 3 = (3\times2 \sqrt{3} )^2 = (6\sqrt{3})^2$

$so, a = \sqrt{3} a \ , \ b = 6\sqrt{3} \\\\(a - b)^2 = a^2 -2ab + b^2\\\\-36a = -2ab\\\\-36a = -2 \times \sqrt{3} a \times 6\sqrt{3}$

Therefore ,

$3a^2 - 36a + 108 = (\sqrt{3}a )^2 - 2(\sqrt{3}a \times 6\sqrt{3} ) + (6\sqrt{3} )^2 = (\sqrt{3}a - 6\sqrt{3} )^2$

The scale is evenly balanced. Explain how to find the weight (w) of one turtle.

Tomtit [17]

Answer: 8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as an equation with a variable for turtles. Count up the other side of the scale (without turtles). Add up the three 1s and the 4 to get 7. Then add up all four 7s. This will get you with an equation 3t+4=28.

To solve this, first subtract 4 from both sides to get 3t=24. Now divide both sides by 3. 24/3=8. Each turtle weighs 8 units.
