Answer:

12 yd, 2 ft, 10 in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1 yard is -------> 36 in

1 yard is -------> 3 ft

1 ft is ---------> 12 in

we have

when the work started

26 yards, 2 feet, 5 inches convert to inches

26*36+2*12+5=965 in

when the job was finished

13 yards, 2 feet, 7 inches convert to inches

13*36+2*12+7=499 in

Find the difference

965-499=466 in

a) convert to yards

466/36=12.9444 yd

12 yards is-------------> 12*36=432 in

so

466 in=12 yd +(466 in-432 in)

466 in=12 yd +34 in

b) convert 34 in to feet

34/12=2.832 ft is--------> 2*12=24 in

34 in=2 ft+(34 in-24 in)

34 in=2 ft+10 in

therefore

466 in=12 yd +2 ft +10 in

You know that a rope is no more than 150 feet long. You need to cut the rope into 3 pieces.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>hey there,</em>

<em />

< We know that the rope is 3 pieces long. To make this into an equation, let's just write x + y + z = 150.

Assuming "y" is our second piece, we can tell y = 2x, because it is two times the size of the first piece, which is "x". We also know "z" (our third piece): z = 30.

We can try inputting all the things we know now. x + (2x) + 30 = 150. From here, we can find that x = 40. Since y is our second piece, y = 2x, so 2 x (40) = 80. The second piece would be 80 feet long. >

Use a geometric formula to solve the problem. A rectangle has a width of 4 centimeters and a perimeter of 26 centimeters. Find t
AURORKA [14]

The length is 9.

The formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is

2L + 2W = P.

2L + 2(4) = 26.

2L + 8 = 26.

2L + 8 (-8) = 26 (-8).

2L = 18.

2L/2 = 18/2.

L = 9.

The area of the rectangle can be found using two different expressions: a(b + c) or ab + ac. The equality of these expressions, a(b + c) = ab + ac, is the distributive property.
