A foot is 12 inches.
12 can go into 58 evenly 4 times, since 12• 4 equals 48 but 12 • 5 equals 60. This means that the tree is at least 4 feet. Then to find the leftover inches we do 58-48 equals 10, therefore the answer is 58 inches translates to 4 feet and 10 inches.
Answer and explanation:
To solve the inequality x-2/x + x+2/x+3 < 3/2 we have to first simplify the expressions on the left side of the inequality sign. And so we multiply x by the expressions on the left side to eliminate fractions:
=x(x-2/x)+x(x+2/x)+x(3)< 3/2
=x-2+x+2+3x < 3/2
=5x < 3/2
x < 3/2/5
x < 3/2×5/1
x < 15/2
x < 7 1/2 or 7. 5
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 15 - 20 = 40
60 - 20 = 40

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
68 plants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of plants that Reuben bought from the nursery.
We have been given that Reuben bought a whole bunch of plants at the nursery the other day. Right away, five died. So number of plant left would be
.
We are also told that then our dog dug up 2/9 of them. So number of plants left after dug-up would be
.
Further a rabbit came and ate ½ of what was left. So number of plants left would be
.
Since Reuben had only 7 plants left, so we will equate our expression with 7 and solve for x as:





Therefore, Reuben bought 68 plants at the nursery.
