maya wants to mark a length of 7 inches on a sheet of paper, but she does not have a ruler . she has pieces of wood that are 4 inches 5 inches, and 6 inches long. Explain how she can use these pieces to mark a length of 7 inches.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: ok
6+1=7
if only we could find 1
hmm

4+1=5
so mark a starting line
put the 4 inch and 5 inch wood at that line, facing the same direction (lying flat on paper)
the difference between the pieces of wood is 1 inch
mark the end of the 5 inch and the end of the 4 inch
that is 1 inch
now pick either end of that 1 inch mark and measure 6 inches more

Mr. Cohen drives 84 2/10 miles on Tuesday, 84 6/10 on Wednesday, and 85 miles on Thursday. What is the rule of the distance he drives each day? Show how you can check your answer.

Answers

He drives an extra 4/10 miles you can check your work by adding 4

Answer:

He drives an extra 4/10 of a mile every day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at our pattern, we see that to get from 84 2/10 to 84 6/10, we would add 4/10.

Similarly, to get from 84 6/10 to 85, we would add 4/10.

This means we add 4/10 of a mile every day.

To check, we can subtract:

85-84 6/10 = 4/10

84 6/10-84 2/10 = 4/10

What does J equal????????????????????????????
3 + j / 11 =2

j =

Answers

Let's solve the equation step-by-step

Step 1) Simplify both sides of the equation

3+ j/11 = 2

1/11j+3=2

Step 2) Subtract 3 from both sides

1/11j + 3 - 3 = 2 - 3

1/11j = -1

Step 3) Multiply both sides by 11

11 x (1/11j) = (11) x (-1)

j = -11

Answer is.. J = -11

↑ ↑ ↑ Hope this helps! :D

$3 + (j)/(11) = 2\n\n(j)/(11) = -1\n\n j=-1 * 11\n\n\boxed{\bf{j=-11}}$
