The thickness of the board was decreased from 3 / 4 inches to 9 / 16 inches.

Therefore,

\text{ the decrement = }\frac{3}{4}-\frac{9}{16}=\frac{12-9}{16}=\frac{3}{16}\text{ inches}

So the board's thickness in inches decreased by

\frac{3}{16}

Alex the electrician needs 34 yards of electrical wire to complete his job. He has a coil of wiring in his workshop. The coiled
bogdanovich [222]

Answer: This coil will not be enough to complete the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the coil of wiring can be calculated with:

C=2\pi r

Where r is the radius and \pi=3.14

The radius can be calculated by dividing the diameter by 2. Then:

r=\frac{18in}{2}\\\\r=9in

Convert 9 inches to yards (1 yard=36 inches):

(9in)(\frac{1yd}{36in})=0.25yd

Substitute this radius into the formula:

C=2(3.14)(0.25yd)\\C=1.57yd

Since there are 21 circles of wire, you need to multiply C=1.57yd by 21:

C_T=(1.57yd)(21)=32.97yd

The coil has 32.97 yards of wire and Alex needs 34 yards, therefore, this coil will not be enough  to complete the job.
