Sam cut 62 and 1/2 inches of ribbon into 4 equal hair ribbon how long was each hair ribbon

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If the total length of ribbon is 62 and 1/2 inches, or 62.5 inches, and he cut it in to 4 equal parts then:

62.5/4 = x 
x = 15.625 inches 

Each ribbon is 15.625 inches.

x² - d = (x + 9) (x + c)
c and d are integers.

Integers are whole numbers found in the number line. These can be positive integers or negative integers.

x² - d ⇒ this means that there is no middle term. The sum of the middle term is 0.

(x + 9)(x - 9) = x(x - 9) + 9(x - 9) = x² - 9x + 9x - 81 = x² - 81

c = -9
d = 81

x² + Mx + 18 = (x + g)(x + h)

if M = -11
x² - 11m + 18 ⇒ (x-9)(x-2) ⇒ x(x-2) -9(x-2) 
x² - 2x - 9x + 18 ⇒ x² - 11x + 18

if M = 7
x² + 7m + 18 ⇒ (x + 9)(x-2) ⇒ x(x-2) + 9(x-2) 
x² - 2x + 9x - 18 ⇒ x² + 7x - 18

Only Pat is correct.
M = -11
g = 9
h = 2

Why is 0.000 002 the same as 2 out of a million

Answers

we can always convert a decimal to a fraction, by simply adding as many zeros at the bottom as there are deciamals, and lose the dot atop.

so with that mouthful, let's convert 0.000002 to a fraction.  It has 6 decimals, so we'll use 6 zeros.


\bf 0.\underline{000002}\implies \cfrac{0000002}{1\underline{000000}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{two millionths}}{\cfrac{2}{1,000,000}}\impliedby \textit{2 out of 1,000,000}

72-(63-8) and (72-63)-8

Answers

The Priority is always to parenthesis. It means that in both equations, begin by operating what's inside the parenthesis. Then Subtract what's left.

For the first one you get:
72 - (63-8)
72 - 55
17

For the second one you get:
(72-63)-8
9-8
1

Which mean that The 2 equations are not equal, because 17 \ \textgreater \  1
Hope this Helps! :D
They are not equal because for each you get different answer.

72-(63-8) \n 72-55 \n  17

(72-63)-8 \n 9-8 \n 1

17 and 1 are not equal.

Therefore, the two expressions  72-(63-8) and (72-63)-8 are not equal .

Herta wants to build a picket fence in her front yard. Her design has fence posts that are 8.5 feet apart, with 19 pickets between each set of posts. If the pickets are 3 inches wide, how wide should the gaps be so that everything is evenly spaced?

Answers

8.5 Feet  = 102 inches

Pickets = 19 x 3  = 57 inches

Remaining = 102 inches - 57 inches = 45

If you put 19 pickets, there will be 20 gaps

So each will be 45 / 20 = 2.25 inches wide

hope this helps


Can someone explain to me how to do this? :

8^2y+4 = 16^y+1

Answers

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the problem is 8^(2y+4)=16^(y+1), it would be nice if we could convert both sides of this equation to the same base; that way, we could compare the exponents directly in an equation of their own. Fortunately, 8 and 16 are both powers of 2 -- 2^3 and 2^4, we can rewrite the original equation by substituting those in:

(2^3)^(2y+4)=(2^4)^(y+1)

When you have an exponent raised to another exponent, you multiply those exponents together, so we can simplify our equation by distributing a 3 in the left exponent and a 4 in the right:

2^(3\cdot(2y+4))=2^(4\cdot(y+1))\n2^(3\cdot2y+3\cdot4)=2^(4\cdot y+4\cdot1)\n2^(6y+12)=2^(4y+4)

With both of our bases the same, we can now simply compare their exponents directly to solve for y:

6y+12=4y+4\n2y=-8\ny=-4

chad has two pieces of wood.one piece is7\12 foot long the second piece is 5\12 foot longer then the first piece. how long is the second one

Answers

These fractions both have the same denominators so we can add them without having the equate them first.

The only thing you have to do is add the numerators (7 and 5), and keep the denominators the same.

7     5            12
-- + ---    =    ------
12    12         12

When you simplify 12/12 it becomes 1.

The second piece of wood is 1 foot long
