Answer:
Part A
12 pieces
Part B
Tara can cut Twelve 2/5 foot pieces can be cut from 4 4/5 feet of rope.
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: How many 2/5 foot pieces can Tara cut from the 4 4/5 feet of rope?
This is calculated as:
4 4/5 feet of rope ÷ 2/5 foot pieces
= 24/5 ÷ 2/5
= 24/5 × 5/2
= 12
Part B: Using the information in Part A, interpret the meaning of the quotient in terms of the two fractions given
The quotient in Part A is 12
Therefore, this can be interpreted as:
Tara can cut Twelve 2/5 foot pieces can be cut from 4 4/5 feet of rope.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
The result in standard form
We have:
Remove brackets
Collect like terms
The standard form of a quadratic equation is:
So, we have:
Answer:
-3.8 - (7.2-10 3/8)
-3.8+(-7.2+10 3/8) this is the error, it's positive 10 3/8, not negative, then you should solve what's in the parentheses first
I simplified 10 3/8 into 83/8 and then 10.375
-3.8+(-7.2 + 10.375)
-3.8+ 3.175 = -0.625
