Answer:

70 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The first piece of lumber Jolie finds is labeled as 500 millimeters long, the second piece is labeled as 1 meter long, and the third piece is labeled as 20 centimeters long .

To find: How many centimeters shorter is the first piece of lumber that Jolie finds than the length of the second and third pieces of lumber combined

Solution:

Length of first piece = 500 mm = 50 cm (As 1 cm = 10 mm)

Length of second piece = 1 m =100 cm (As 1 m =100 cm )

Length of third piece = 20 cm

Sum of length of second and third piece = 100 + 20 =120 cm

So,

Sum of length of second and third piece - Length of first piece = 120 - 50 = 70 cm

Therefore,

the first piece of lumber is shorter than the length of the second and third pieces of lumber combined by 70 cm.

4x – 4 – 3x > 13 – 7x – 1 + 8

Rashid [163]

If you would like to solve the inequation 4 * x - 4 - 3 * x > 13 - 7 * x - 1 + 8, you can do this using the following steps:

4 * x - 4 - 3 * x > 13 - 7 * x - 1 + 8
4 * x - 3 * x + 7 * x > 4 + 13 - 1 + 8
8 * x > 24 /8
x > 24/8
x > 3

The correct result would be x > 3.

What is the average price of an item sold considering quantity? 12 notepads at $4.20 25 folders at $0.80 3 calculators at $19.00

Savatey [412]

Answer:

Average price = $3.185

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

12 notepads = $4.20 each

25 folders = $0.80 each

3 calculators = $19.00 each

Find:

Average price

Computation:

Average price = Total cost / Total number of item

Average price = [(12)(4.20) + (25)(0.80) + (3)(19)] / [12 + 25 + 3]

Average price = [(50.4) + (20) + (57)] / [40]

Average price = [127.4] / [40]

Average price = $3.185

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line will have the same slope as the reference line. In this case, I don't see the "given line" as promised in the question. If it does appear, and it looks like y = 5x + 3, for example, the slope is 5 and the new line will have the same slope.

<h3><u>If this slope is correct</u>, we can start the equation for the parallel line that goes through point (-3,2) by starting with:</h3><h3 /><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3 /><h3>We need a value of b that forces the line to go through point (-3,2). We can do that by using the given point in the equation and solving for b:</h3><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3>2 = 5(-3) + b</h3><h3>b = 17</h3><h3 /><h3>The parallel line to y=5x+3 is</h3><h3>y = 5x + 17</h3><h3 /><h3>See attachment.</h3><h3 /><h3 /><h3 />
