Answer: 6
There are 2/8 per every 1/4. This means that a 3/4 foot long board is equivalent to a 6/8 foot long board, and can therefor be cut into 6 1/8 foot segments.
Answer:
7/10 or 0.7
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step that you need to do is to convert 5.6 to a fraction. 5.6 can be rewritten as 
, which is equal to 
.To multiply two fractions together, you simply need to multiply together the numerators and then the denominators. 
. Hope this helps!
Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
One kilogram is equal to 2.2 pounds so all you would have to do is multiply 2.2 x 5 and you get 11. :)
Answer: The graph is shown below
The solution to the system is (x,y) = (2,3)
=============================================================
Explanation:
To graph 
, we need two points. Generating any (x,y) point involves picking a random x value to find its paired y value. For instance, if you plugged in x = 0, you should get to y = -2 which is the y intercept. Then trying something like x = 2 will lead to y = 3. This line goes through (0,-2) and (2,3). This line is shown in red below.
The blue line is horizontal and goes through 3 on the y axis. Every point on this horizontal line has the same y coordinate of 3. The x value doesn't matter, so it's not part of the equation y = 3.
The intersection of the red and blue line is the solution to the system. That intersection occurs at (x,y) = (2,3). This means x = 2 and y = 3 pair up together to make both original equations true.
Since this system has at least one solution, we consider it a consistent system.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the "number."
"twice the difference of a number and 16" can be written as:
2(x-16)
"is the same as three times a number less than 18" can be written as:
= 3(x<18)
I wonder if this was meant to say "is the same as three times a number less 18," instead of "less than 18." If so, we would have:
=3(x-18)
1. Using the sentence as written: 2(x-16) = 3(x<18)
2. Using the sentence as amended: 2(x-16) = =3(x-18)
Going with this interpretation:
2(x-16) = 3(x-18)
2x - 32 = 3x - 54
x = 22
