Let's find how many inches each piece of cable will be, by finding how many feet are in 8 yards, then finding how many inches are in that many feet. 

Since there are 3 feet in a yard, 3 x 8 = 24. There are 24 feet in 8 yards.

Since there are 12 inches in a foot, 12 x 24 = 288. There are 288 inches in 24 feet. 

Now let's find how long each cable will be. 288/9 = 32. 

Each piece of cable will be 32 inches long. 

Hope this helped! If you have anymore questions or don't understand, please comment or DM me. :)

They would be 32 inches because I did it again and got 32 inches or 0.8 yards
long and if you need any more help or this wasn't correct just tell me :D

Allie made the line plot below to show the lengths of strings she cut for her art project.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

1/4, or 0.25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

You count the dots. The number of dots tell you how many of each length of string she used.

You first find the column with the most dots, and then you find the column with the least. Then you just subtract them, the number of inches it displays on the bottom, 12 1/2 - 12 1/4, which is 1/4. I did this in my head and you can use a calculator if you want.

Thanks for the points, and have a blessed day. Hope this helps.

Find two rational numbers between 5/6 and 83/ 100 . Explain how you know (without using decimals)
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

998/1200 and 997/1200

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s hard to compare 5/6 and 83/100 in their current states. Let’s find a common denominator. Take 600. We know that this will work because both 6 and 100 go into it. Multiplying 5 by 100 and 83 by 6 to find the common denominator, we can compare them at 498/600 and 500/600. However, there is only one number (499/600) between them. Thus, we will multiply each number by 2/2, which is 1. Our numbers are then 996/1200 and 1000/1200. Two numbers between them are then 997/1200 and 998/1200

Last one include explanation thank you !!!
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Angle 2 = 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these angles are cut by a transversal the angle from above is congruent to angle #2. You can say the theorem that is used to make these two congruent is the Alternate exterior angles theorem which states this.

Hope this helped!
