Answer: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given that Bill bought 38 1/2 feet of wire. Convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction.

The length L1 = 77/2

You are given that he cut the wire into several pieces, each one measuring 5 1/2 feet. Convert it too to improper fraction.

The length L2 = 11/2

To know how many number of pieces of wire he have after making the cuts, divide length L1 by length L2. That is,

L1/L2 = 77/2 ÷ 11/2

Change the division to multiplication by reciprocating 11/2 to 2/11

77/2 × 2/11 = 77/11 = 7

Therefore, he had 7 pieces of wires after making the cuts.

Bonjour je ne comprend pas cette exercice; si quelqu'un peut m'aider je suis preneuse.

Answer:

0,24 m

Step-by-step explanation:

La table est un rectanble donc l'angle en  haut à droite est de 90°.

Tu connais donc un angle et le côté opposé à l'angle et tu cherche le côté adjacent.

On sait que tan(â) = \frac{Cote oppose}{Cote adjacent} donc :

tan(40)= \frac{1,27}{x}

\frac{1,27}{tan(40)} = x

donc x ≈ 1,51 m

Le trou du mileu est à \frac{2,54}{2} soit 1,27m du bord.

Donc elle doit taper à 1,51 - 1,27 = 0,24m du trou du milieu.

j'espère avoir été clair.

The revenue of a company that makes backpacks is given by the formula R = 34.S0x, where x represents the number of backpacks sol
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Revenue = 1380

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Revenue means the sales or turnover of a company when it sells its products. In other words, it is nothing but the income of a company on selling the products.

Here, the company is selling backpacks. So, revenue is the amount earned by the company on selling 'x' backpacks. The linear model to represent the same is given below.

The revenue received from selling 'x' backpacks is given as:

R=34.50x

Number of backpacks sold (x) = 40

Now, in order to find the revenue received on selling 40 backpacks, we need to plug in 40 for 'x' in the equation above and solve for the revenue, 'R'.

On plugging 40 for 'x', we get:

R=34.50\times 40\\\\R=1380

Therefore, the revenue received by the company on selling 40 backpacks is 1380.
