The shorter piece is 3/10 of the 1.5m long piece of wood.
1.5/10=0.15
0.15*3=0.45
The shorter piece is 0.45m or 45cm long.

Hope this helps :)

David will spend at most $39 on gifts. So far, he has spent $22. What are the possible additional amounts he will spend? Use c f

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

$c\leq \$17$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

c -----> the additional amount (in dollars) David will spend

we know that

The word " at most" in this context means "less than or equal to"

The amount David has spent plus possible additional amounts he will spend must be less than or equal to $39

The inequality that represent this situation is

$22+c\leq 39$

solve for c

subtract 22 both sides

$c\leq 39-22$

$c\leq \$17$

The maximum amount he could spend is $17
