The length of a rectangular room is 5 feet greater than its width. Which of the following equations represents the area (A) of the room?

We are asked to find the number of gallons full tank can hold. The fraction of full tank is 1.

First, we let x be the number of gallons in full tank. Then, set the proportion equation by setting the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction and cross-multiply to find the value of x.

Converting 42/5 to a mixed fraction is 8 2/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 8 2/5 gallons of water.

We are asked to convert kg to pounds using the given relation. Letting x to represent the lb we are looking for.

Nest, we set the proportion with kg in the numerator and lb on the denominator as follows.

We find the value of x by cross-multiplication

The value of x is 110 lb.

A change in number of credit hours result in a change in the amount of access fees, amount of tuition, and availability of student loans. Thus, number of credit hours is the independent variable.

The best way to display the frequency of each day of the week when students get up after 8 a.m. is by using a bar graph. Bar graphs are well-suited for representing categorical data, where each day of the week is a separate category, and the height of each bar corresponds to the count or frequency of students waking up late on that specific day.

Note: Histograms, on the other hand, are more appropriate for visualizing continuous or numerical data and are not ideal for categorical data like days of the week.Histograms are useful for understanding the distribution of data, identifying patterns, and assessing the shape of the data distribution, such as whether it's normally distributed, skewed, or has multiple modes.

As you can see below, the Histogram is used to depict a pattern/continuous/rangedata. While a bar graph does just fine even with discrete data.

To find the greatest number from the given options, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

4.25 becomes 425/100

4.4 becomes 44/10

Then, we find the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions. The LCM of 2, 100, 3 and 10 is 300. Now we can multiply each fraction with the LCM.

9/2*300=1350

425/100*300=1275

10/3*300=1000

44/10*300=1320

Comparing the obtained values from above, 1350 is the greatest followed by 1320, 12750, and 1000 in that order. The fraction 9/2 gave a value of 1350, which was the greatest value. Thus, 9/2 is the greatest value from the given option.

You can also convert to decimals and compare which would give you the same answer.

Let x be the employee's salary before the raise. The employee received a 20% raise, so the new salary is:

x+0.2x=60,000

Step 1: Factor out x

1.2x=60,000

Step 2: Solve for x

x=60,000/1.2=50,000

Percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. The given percent is divided by 100. To convert it to a decimal form, we move the decimal point two points to the left from the current position. Thus

The decimal form of 87.5% is 0.875.

We required to find the units of finding the weight of a spoon. The mass is measured in kilogram and grams. Kilograms are used to measure the mass of heavier objects while grams for small and lighter objects.

Thus, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a spoon.

We need to find the value of x from the given equation. First, we move the value of 10 to the right-hand side of the equation.

Add 10 to both sides of the equation

Next, we apply the absolute rule:

,   a>0, then u=a or u=-a

In this case a=12, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition becomes

Solving for x

The second condition becomes

Solving for x

Then, the value of x is -1 or 2.

We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.

Letting x be the number of cups of flour and setting the proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator. We have

Solve the value of x by cross-multiplying

We convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction in order to carry out multiplication

\(x =\ \frac{9}{4}\ cups\ *\ 90\ cookies\ *\ \frac{1}{36}\ cookies\)

The number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 5.625 cups, which is equal to 5 5/8 cups(Choice B).
