37 Feet
Simply do 24+13 to get 37
Mario has to go 24 feet to the finish line and another 13 feet to get to Luigi
The answer to the problem is going to be 3
We have to add 3 2/3 + 2 2/3 using fraction strips. 3 2/3 and 2 2/3 are the mixed numbers. The mixed numbers consists of a whole number and a fraction. If we want to add those numbers we shoukld change them into improper fractions: 3 2/3 = ( 3 * 3 + 2 ) / 3 = 11 / 3; 2 2/3 = ( 2 * 3 + 2 ) / 2 = 8 / 3. Finally: 11 / 3 + 8 / 3 = ( 11 + 8 ) / 3 = 20 / 3 = 6 2/3. Answer: You reneme it turning them into improper fractions<span>. </span>
See the attached picture.
The negative sign in front of the 2 makes the graph an upside down U shape.
I think you mean to find b in terms of the constants a, c and d.
(x + a ) / b - c = d
(x + a) / b = c + d
Cross multily:-
x + a = b(c + d)
b = (x + a) / (c + d)
