<em>He will need 51 yards, 1 foot and 8 inches twine to wrap 29 cartons. </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Muhammad uses 1 yard, 2 feet and 4 inches of twine to wrap each carton he packs.
<u>We know that, 1 yard = 36 inches and 1 foot = 12 inches</u>.
So, 1 yard, 2 feet and 4 inches inches.
That means, he uses 64 inches of twine to wrap each carton.
He has to pack 29 cartons today. So, <u>the total length of the twine he will need</u> inches.
Now....
1856 inches
Thus, he will need 51 yards, 1 foot and 8 inches twine to wrap 29 cartons.
Answer:
x = 1/3
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
4x + 1 = 3 - 2x
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Add 2x on both sides: 6x + 1 = 3
- Subtract 1 on both sides: 6x = 2
- Divide 6 on both sides: x = 1/3
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 4(1/3) + 1 = 3 - 2(1/3)
- Multiply: 4/3 + 1 = 3 - 2/3
- Add/Subtract: 7/3 = 7/3
Here we see that 7/3 does indeed equal 7/3.
∴ x = 1/3 is a solution of the equation.
Answer:
12.5 inches of gold chain.
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the remaining chain of gold we need to calculate
8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8 of 20 inches
then multiply:
20 * 5/8 = 100/8
100/8 = 12.5 inches
