The amount of fabric needed for Jimmy's costume is not stated, we can only determine the amount needed for Rob's costume, which makes it impossible to compare the amounts needed for both of their costumes. If this omission was an error, then you can find the difference between these amounts if the amount needed for Jimmy's costume is stated explicitly.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of yards of fabric needed for Robs costume is (7/8+1/2+1 3/4)÷2
Assuming 1 3/4 is a mixed fraction.
= (7/8 + 1/2 + 7/4) ÷ 2
= (7 + 4 + 2) ÷ (8 × 2)
= 13/16 yards
Suppose 2 yards of fabric is needed for Jimmy's costume, then comparing with Rob's yards, we see that Jimmy's costume requires (2 - 13/16 = 19/16) more yards than Rob's costume.
Answer:
See below. <u><em>I assume that (x) = 8x2 - 7x + 3 is really (x) = 8x^2 - 7x + 3</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the value of x given in f(x) into the equation f(x) = 8x^2 - 7x + 3
For example, f(0) would be f(0) = 8(0)^2 - 7(0) + 3. f(0) = 3
f(-2) would be f(-2) = 8(-2)^2 - 7(-2) + 3.
= 8*4 + 14 +3
= 32 + 17 therefore f(-2) = 49

Answer:
8+x if x > -8
8 if x = 0
-8-x if x < -8
Step-by-step explanation:
|14−(6-x)|
|14−6+x|
|8+x|
8+x if x > -8
8 if x = 0
-8-x if x < -8
If each linear dimension is scaled by a factor of 10, then the area is scaled by a factor of 100. This is because 10^2 = 10*10 = 100. Consider a 3x3 square with area of 9. If we scaled the square by a linear factor of 10 then it's now a 30x30 square with area 900. The ratio of those two areas is 900/9 = 100. This example shows how the area is 100 times larger.
Going back to the problem at hand, we have the initial surface area of 16 square inches. The box is scaled up so that each dimension is 10 times larger, so the new surface area is 100 times what it used to be
New surface area = 100*(old surface area)
new surface area = 100*16
new surface area = 1600
Final Answer: 1600 square inches
Answer:
B. 12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Add all the hours together to get 20. We make the assumption that 20 is 100% since it is our output value. We next represent the value we seek with x. From step 1, it follows that 100%=20. In the same vein, x%=2.5.This gives us a pair of simple equations:
100%=20(1)
x%=2.5(2)
By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS (left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have
=
Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides gives us this:
>> x=12.5\%
Therefore, 2.5 is 12.5% of 20.
