1 answer:

8 0

You can try the ac method.
1. Try to factor a common factor from all terms.
2. Multiply ac.
3. Find two factors of ac that add to b, call them p and q.
4. Rewrite the trinomial with the bx term broken up into into px + qx.
5. Factor by grouping.

72 inches=___ yards please and thank you for your help

I am Lyosha [343]

We know that:

$1yd=36in\text{.}$

Then:

$1in=\frac{1}{36}yd\text{.}$

Therefore:

$72in=72\cdot(\frac{1}{36}yd)\text{.}$

Simplifying the above result we get:

$72\cdot\frac{1}{36}yd=2yd\text{.}$

Answer:

$72\text{inches}=2\text{yards.}$

Please help me with the problem

mixas84 [53]

Let's see what we're working on here

$\frac{1}{2} - 2(m) =?$
? = 0
$Simplify this →$ $\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}2y} - 2(m) = ?$

$\frac{2(m)(2)}{2}$

$\frac{1 - 4(m)}{2} = ?$

$\frac{1 - 4(m)}{2} = 2$

$-4(m) + 1 = 0$
Subtract ( - )the number 1 from each of your sides on this part

4(m) = 1
Multiply( ×) the number -1 to your sides for this part of the equation

Therefore, the value of m is $\frac{1}{4}$
$m = \frac{1}{4}$

Problem page the length of a rectangle is four times its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 70 cm , find its area.

agasfer [191]

So we can call the width of the rectangle x.
So then the length would be 4x.
The perimeter would then be 10x.
Since the perimeter is 70, we can say 70 = 10x.
And then simplify that to 7 = x.
So the length of a rectangle would be 28 cm, and the width would be 7.
So to find the area, just multiply length by width.
28*7 = 196 square cm
So the rectangle's area is 196 square cm.

I hope I helped!
