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.

Answer:

<em>The volume of prism is length*width*height` V=23*14.2*8=2612.8cm^3</em>

<em>Rounded to the nearest whole number` 2613cm^3.</em>

<em>The volume of cylinder is S*height, where S is the area of circle,</em>

<em>S=Pr^2 -> V=3.14*8*8*23=4624.42cm^3. Rounded to the nearest whole number` 4624cm^3.</em>

<em>The difference between their volume is 4624-2613=2011cm^3.</em>

Angle 1 and angle 3 are vertically opposite angles. And both angles are congruent with each other.

<h3>What is an angle?</h3>

The angle is the distance between the intersecting lines or surfaces. The angle is also expressed in degrees. The angle is 360 degrees for one complete spin.

Supplementary angle - Two angles are said to be supplementary angles if their sum is 180 degrees.

Line L and line M intersect each other.

Angle 1 and angle 2 are supplementary angles.

∠1 + ∠2 = 180°         ...1

Angle 2 and angle 3 are supplementary angles.

∠2 + ∠3 = 180°        ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then we have

∠1 + ∠2 = ∠2 + ∠3

∠1 = ∠3

The vertically opposite angles are angle 1 and angle 3. Furthermore, the two angles line up perfectly.

More about the angled link is given below.
