Answer:

The door is <u>1 foot 6 inches</u> wider than the chair.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

You measured the width of your front door to be 3 feet and 2 inches.

The chair you are trying to get through the door measured to be 20 inches wide.

Now, to find how much wider is the door than the chair.

Width of door = 3 feet and 2 inches.

So, we convert into inches by multiplying:

1 foot = 12 inches.

3 feet and 2 inches = 3 × 12 + 2 = 36+2 = 38 inches.

Width of the chair = 20 inches.

Now, to get how wide is the door than the chair we subtract their width:

Width of door - width of chair.

38-20=18\ inches.

Then, we convert into feet and inches by dividing:

18 inches = 18 ÷ 12 = 1 foot 6 inches.

Therefore, the door is 1 foot 6 inches wider than the chair.

Order these from least to greatest 3 39/40 , 3 19/20 , 3 1/2
Lera25 [3.4K]

Hey!

First change all the fractions so that they have a common denominator: 40

3 \frac{39}{40} = 3 \frac{39}{40}

3 \frac{19 \times 2}{20 \times 2} = 3 \frac{38}{40}

3 \frac{1 \times 20}{2 \times 20} = 3 \frac{20}{40}

Now order them:

3 \frac{39}{40} , 3 \frac{19}{20} , 3 \frac{1}{2}

Good luck and hope this helps! :)

if you don't know where to shade, select a point and plug it in to see if T or F

example (0, 0)

is 0 > 4(0) - 2

is 0 > -2  True, so shade to the left because this is where (0,0) is

A triangle has side lengths of (8d – 3) centimeters, (6d + 2) centimeters, and
alisha [4.7K]

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its side lengths.

The perimeter of the triangle is: 14d + 7f +7

<u>The sides of the triangle are:</u>

Side 1 = (8d - 3) cm

Side 2 = (6d + 2) cm

Side 3 = (7f + 8) cm

The perimeter (P) is calculated as:

P = Side 1 + Side 2 + Side 3

So, we have:

P = (8d - 3) + (6d + 2) + (7f + 8)

Remove brackets

P = 8d - 3 + 6d + 2 + 7f + 8

Collect like terms

P = 8d  + 6d + 7f - 3 + 2 + 8

P = 14d + 7f +7

Hence, the perimeter of the triangle is: 14d + 7f +7
