Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X is the number of cards Kenny has
Let Y is the number of cards Lee has
1. Kenny had 5/7 more trading cards than lee, it means
X = Y + 5/7X (1)
2. After Kenny collected 50% more trading cards, he had 220 more trading cards than lee, it means:
X + 50%X = Y + 220 (2)
So, we solve the 2 equations to find out X and Y
<=> X = and Y =
<=> X ≈181 and Y ≈ 52
Answer:
A) False
B) False
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Two angles whose measures add up to 90° are said to be complementary, while two angles are adjacent when formed beside each other. So, adjacent angles might be complementary or supplementary. Thus, the answer to the first part of the question is false.
B. When two angles share a side, they are said to be adjacent to each other. But supplementary angles add up to . Since adjacent angles might be complementary or supplementary, then the answer to the second part of the question is false.
Answer:
2 13/14 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The remaining length is the difference between the starting length and the amount cut off:
5 3/7 - 2 1/2 = (5 -2) +(3/7 -1/2) = 3 +((3·2-7·1)/(7·2)) = 3 -1/14
= 2 13/14 . . . feet remaining

Addition and subtraction of fractions can be accomplished using a formula that does not rely on finding a least common denominator. In this case, the denominators have no common factors, so their product is, in fact, the least common denominator.
