Answer:
9 ft and 9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 12 inches in a foot
1ft = 12in
2ft = 24 in
3ft = 36 in
4ft = 48
and so on
9 ft = 108 inches which is the closes to 117.
So we have 9 ft
subtract 117 from 108, which is 9 inches left over
8 + 13 + 14 + 7 = 42
Chinese = 8/42
Simplified = 4/21
Hello there!
First, we need to admit that math is a hard subject. So, how do we handle hard stuff? We find an easy way. Right?
Well same goes here. They give the fractions to drive us crazy. Let's find the easiest way...
The easiest way is to turn them into decimals.
1 3/7 = 1.42 which is the amount of pages he reads
2/3 = 0.67 minute.
The are asking us how many pages does he reads per minute.
So we gonna say:
Charlie reads 1.42 pages ......> 0.67
Charlie reads x pages.............> 1minute
Cross multiply
0.67 * x = 1 * 1.42
0.67x = 1.42
x = 1.42/0.67
x = 2.11
So, Charlie reads 2.11 pages in 1 minute.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Thanks!
Answer:
x = 2, y = 7, z = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y - z = -3 (1)
3x - y + z = 11 (2)
x - 4y + z = -14 (3)
add (1) and (2)
4x = 8 x = 2
add (1) and (3)
2x - 3y = -17
2(2) - 3y = -17
-3y = -17 - 4
-3y = -21
y = 7
Find z using any equation
x + y - z = -3
2 + 7 - z = -3
9 - z = -3
z = 12
