20
There are 10 feet of posts on each side. That means there are 40 feet of fencing in total. If you divide that by two (to represent posts being 2 feet apart) then you get 20. There are 20 posts needed.
6/8 *3/2.
6*3=18. /8*2=16
18/16
Divide top and bottom by 2
9/8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the number of fiction books is 9:4
the difference between the number of fiction and nonfictionn is 245
so if the number of fiction books = 9x
then the number of nonfiction books = 4x
then difference = 9x-4x = 5x
the difference is given 245
then 5x= 245
x=
=49
number of fiction books =49×9=441
number of nonfiction books =49×4=196

It looks like your equations are
7M - 2t = -30
5t - 12M = 115
<u>Solving by substitution</u>
Solve either equation for one variable. For example,
7M - 2t = -30 ⇒ t = (7M + 30)/2
Substitute this into the other equation and solve for M.
5 × (7M + 30)/2 - 12M = 115
5 (7M + 30) - 24M = 230
35M + 150 - 24M = 230
11M = 80
M = 80/11
Now solve for t.
t = (7 × (80/11) + 30)/2
t = (560/11 + 30)/2
t = (890/11)/2
t = 445/11
<u>Solving by elimination</u>
Multiply both equations by an appropriate factor to make the coefficients of one of the variables sum to zero. For example,
7M - 2t = -30 ⇒ -10t + 35M = -150 … (multiply by 5)
5t - 12M = 115 ⇒ 10t - 24M = 230 … (multiply by 2)
Now combining the equations eliminates the t terms, and
(-10t + 35M) + (10t - 24M) = -150 + 230
11M = 80
M = 80/11
It follows that
7 × (80/11) - 2t = -30
560/11 - 2t = -30
2t = 890/11
t = 445/11
Answer:
00:13 mm:ss
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 60 seconds in a minute. This fact can be used to convert the time period(s) to minutes and seconds either before or after you do the subtraction.
<h3>Difference</h3>
It is often convenient to do arithmetic with all of the numbers having the same units. Here, we are given two values in seconds and asked for their difference.
100 s - 87 s = (100 -87) s = 13 s
The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.
<h3>Conversion</h3>
If you like, the numbers can be converted to minutes and seconds before the subtraction. Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, the number of minutes is found by dividing seconds by 60. The remainder is the number of seconds that will be added to the time in minutes:
87 seconds = ⌊87/60⌋ minutes + (87 mod 60) seconds
= 1 minute 27 seconds
100 seconds = ⌊100/60⌋ minutes + (100 mod 60) seconds
= 1 minute 40 seconds
Then the difference is found in the same way we would find a difference involving different variables. (A unit can be treated as though it were a variable.)
(1 min 40 s) -(1 min 27 s) = (1 -1 min) + (40-27 s) = 0 min 13 s
The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.
