What you can do in this case is a rule of three to determine the length of each bow.
We have then:
1/4 ---> 2
x ------> 1
Clearing x we have:
x = (1/2) * (1/4)
x = 1/8
Answer:
the length of ribbon in each bow is
x = 1/8
Equivalently:
x = (1/4) / 2
Option 3
Answer:
The difference in the lengths of the two alligators = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let us make the lengths improper fractions, then we will find the difference from there.
Alligator 1:
Length = 
To convert to improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, and then add the denominator [(12 × 14) + 5]
Alligator 2:
Length = 
Now Let us find the difference between the lengths:
Therefore the difference in the lengths of the two alligators = 3
The 1905 was 3.0 inches while 2004 was 4.2 inches since they are 1.2 apart and they add up to 7.2
It doesn’t really matter which variable you isolate first but usually you would use the one that’s by itself already. like for example one of the equations was y = 8. you would already have your y solve for so you would just have to plug that in for y in the other equation. personally, i usually do x first unless one of the equations has either x or y by itself already. i think its easier to just do x first and then solve for y after that, but it just depends on what the equations are; sometimes it might be easier to just do y first. hope this helps!
Answer:
y=-2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
equation for slope is y=mx+b
the slope is -2 so that equals m
(0,3) is the y-intercept
y=b
3 is the y value making it substitute b making the equation y=-2x+3
