I THINK the answer would be around 2/3/4 paper clips, I'm not sure. And keep in mind, I;m not responsible for any wrong answers/ invalid responses.
A 31 inches is the answer because it can't be higher than 39
Answer:
These types of questions are not daunting if you break it down. First look at "Five less than twice the value of a number."
"Twice the value of a number" is simply 2x.
"Five less" is simply -5, so for the first part we have (2x-5)
Next, analyze the second part. "Three times the quantity of four more than one half the number."
Looking at "Three times the quantity" simply means "3 times something".
"the quantity of four more than one half the number" is 4 + "one half the number" or 4 + (1/2)x.
So the second part is simply 3(4+x/2).
Finally we finish the entire equation, (2x-5) = 3(4+x/2) then solve for x.
2x-5 = 12 + (3/2)x
2x-(3/2)x = 17
x/2 = 17
x=34
Checking the left side, (2x-5) = 2(34) - 5 = 63.
Checking the right side, 3(4+(34/2)) = 3(4+17) = 3(21) = 63.

Answer:
1) 16
2a) 100 -a -2b
2bi) (100 -a -2b)/4
2bii) 11
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Put the numbers where the corresponding variables are and do the arithmetic.
(2(1) +3(-2))^2 = (2 -6)^2 = (-4)^2 = 16

2. The pieces cut from the wire have the lengths a, b, b. The sum of those lengths is a+b+b = a+2b.
2a. The remaining length is what is left when the total of cut pieces is subtracted from the original amount:
100 -(a+2b) = 100 -a -2b
2bi. The perimeter of the square is the amount in part (2a). A square has 4 sides of the same length, so each side has a length that is 1/4 of the perimeter. The side length is ...
(100 -a -2b)/4 . . . . length of one side of the square
2bii. Fill in the given values for "a" and "b" and do the arithmetic.
(100 -24 -2(16))/4 = (76 -32)/4 = 44/4 = 11 . . . one side of the square
