First turn 1/2 to 2/4 so you have a common denominator.
Next turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions:
11 3/4 --> 47/4 and 8 2/4 --> 34/4
Subtract:
47/4 - 34/4 = 13/4
Divide:
13/4 = 3.25
3.25/2 --> 1.625 or 1 5/8
Therefore, he will have to place it 1 5/8 feet from each side

Hope this helps!

Graph the systems of equations. {2x+y=8 −x+2y=6 Use the Line tool to graph the lines.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

See attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to graph the system

2x+y=8

-x+2y=6

Let us rewrite the lines in slope intercept form:

y=-2x+8

y=\frac{1}{2}x+3

The first line has a slope of -2 and a y-intercept of 8

The second line has a slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of 3

We can no graph the lines as shown in the attachment.
