Answer:

Jewelry box: 1/6 yard

Step-by-step explanation:

4/5 (not 4\5) of her 5/6 yard goes into a dress: (4/5)(5/6 yd) = 2/3 yard.

This is the same as 4/6 yard. The amount of lace remaining, to be used on a jewelry box, is 5/6 - 4/6, or 1/6 yard.

Set 4x equal to x+30 and solve.

prisoha [69]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Subtract x from both sides.

4x − x = 30

2) Simplify 4−x to 3x

3x = 30

3) Divide both sides by 3

x = $\frac{30}{3}$

4) Simplify $\frac{30}{3}$ to 10

x = 10

Answer:

x = 9

TH = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

since TM is half of HM, the equation is:

2(21 - x) = 3x - 3

42 - 2x = 3x - 3

45 = 5x

x = 9

TH = 21 - x

TH = 21 - 9

TH = 12
