<span><span>15 times 9.25 = 138.75 inches.
That leaves

144-138.75 = 5.25 inches for spaces. 
Between the 15 boards are just 14 spaces, however.
So divide 5.25 by 14 and get
3/8" for each space.</span>

<span>Hi there,
14 boards each 9 1/4 inches wide.
14 x 9 1/4 = 138 3/4 inches
144 inches - 138 3/4 inches

= 5 1/4 inches
Spaces between 14 boards
= 13 spaces.
5 1/4 / 13 = 2/5 of an inch.
Hope this helps. :-)</span></span>

Answer

3/8 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

15x9.25 = 138.75

Subtract this number from the total width

144-138.75 = 5.25 inches left for spaces

In an area with 15 boards, there are 14 spaces.

So divide 5.25 by 14 to get

3/8

Answer:

A. t=13 B. K= 23 C. t= 1 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 2t-30m=20

30 x 1/5= 6

2t-6+6=20+6

2t/2=26/2

t=13

B. 14+m=2k

14+12=2k

14+12=46

46/2=23

k=23

C. 1/8r+t=1

1/8 x (-3)= -3/8

1 - (-3/8)= 1 3/8

t= 1 3/8

Hope it helps!

2) A total of $27,000 was invested; part of it at 10% and part of it at 12%. The total yield was $2990. How much was invested at
Vladimir79 [104]

A total of $27,000 was invested; part of it at 10% and part of it at 12%. The total yield was $2990. How much was invested at each rate?​

Let

x -----> amount invested at 10%

(27,000-x) -----> amount invested at 12%

we have that

0.10(x)+0.12(27,000-x)=2990 ------> equation A

solve for x

0.10x+3,240-0.12x=2,990

0.12x-0.10x=3,240-2,990

0.02x=250

x=$12,500

so

27,000-x=27,000-12,500=$14,500

therefore

amount invested at 10% ----> $12,500

amount invested at 12% -----> $14,500

1.What is the intersection of all the open intervals containing the closed interval [0,1]? Justify your answer.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

We can find an open interval (-\frac{1}{n}, 1+\frac{1}{n}). Which contains the closed interval [0,1] when n \to \infinity

Therefore, the intersection of all the open intervals containing [0,1[/tex[ is [tex][0,1]

2)

We can find closed intervals containing [0,1] in (-\frac{1}{n}, 1+\frac{1}{n}) when n \to \infinity

Since (-\frac{1}{n}, 1+\frac{1}{n}) is closed, the intersection of all those intervals containing [0,1[/tex[ is  the closed interval [tex][0,1]
