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

37. Two numbers are such that their
omeli [17]

Answer:

8 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Two numbers are such that their difference, their sum, and their product are to

each other as 1:7:24. Their product must equal what number?

:

Two numbers a & b

Let x = the multiplier

:

a - b = 1x

a + b = 7x

a * b = 24x

:

Add the 1st two equations

a - b = x

a + b = 7x

2a = 8x

a = 4x

or

x = .25a

:

a * b = 24x

Replace 24x; a = 4x therefore:

a * b = 6a

b = 6

;

Using the 1st equation

a - b = 1x

Replace b with 6 and x with .25a

a - 6 = .25a

a - .25a = 6

.75a = 6

a =

a = 8

:

Find the multiplier

a - b = x

8 - 6 = 2

:

Check this

a - b = 2 (1*2)

a + b = 14; (7*2)

a * b = 48: (24*2)

:

The numbers are 8 and 6; their products = 48
