Answer: 51/8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you must cut down the length of copper tubbing from 15 1/8 inches to 8 3/4 inches, the leftover piece will be:
15 1/8 - 8 3/4
Change the mixed fraction to improper fraction.
121/8 - 35/4
The LCM will be 8
( 121 - 70 )/8
51/8 or 6.375 inches
Therefore, the leftover piece will be 51/8 inches long
Remark
You sure do have to read that a couple of times.
The quotient is an answer after a division takes place So you are dividing x/3
When you have figured out that phrase you add six onto it.
(x/3) + 6 > 14 Subtract 6 from both sides.
(x/3) +6 - 6 > 14 - 6
(x/3) > 8 Now multiply by 3
x > 8*3
x > 24 <<<<<< Answer
12x - 4y = -8
y = 3x + 2
Rewrite the first equation
12x + 8 = 4y
3x + 2 = y
As you see, the first and second equation are actually the same, meaning there's an infinite number of solutions.
