Answer:
<u>The correct answer is 58 1/2 feet. See below to understand the difference of both methods.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the question using both methods:
Area of each student = 4 1/2 square feet
Number of students = 13
2. Let's use the first method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 9/2 (Improper fraction because the numerator, 9 is bigger than the denominator, 2)
9/2 * 13 = 117/2
<u>117/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
3. Let's use the second method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 (Using addition to rewrite the fraction)
(4 + 1/2) * 13 = (4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) (Distributive property of the multiplication)
(4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) = 52 + 13/2 = 52 + 6 1/2
<u>52 + 6 1/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
A.true
Because congruent angles are exactly the same measure
Answer:
Molly can drive her car 112 miles on 4 gallons of gas and 182 miles on 6.5 gallons write an equation to show the relationship between the number of gallons she has and the number of miles she can drive and how many gallons she would need to drive 420 miles⊂⇄∪↓Ф
Step-by-step explanation:
35 pencils would cost $2.80,
$1.60 / 20 = $.08
Each pencil costs $0.08 each
.08 * 35 = 2.80
Answer:
C. They are the same line.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to compare the linear equations given, they need to be in the same form. The best form in order to evaluate slope and y-intercept is slope-intercept form, y = mx + b. Since the second equation is already in slope-intercept form, we need to use inverse operations to convert the first equation:
6x - 2y = 16 ---- 6x - 2y - 6x = 16 - 6x ---- -2y = -6x + 16
-2y/-2 = -6x/-2 + 16/-2
y = 3x - 8
Since both equations are in the form y = 3x - 8, then they are both the same line.
