A strip of wood 66 inches long is to be cut into 51 /2 -inch pieces. How many pieces can be cut? A. 12 B. 14 C. 30 D. 33

1 answer:

8 0

<span>To calculate how many pieces that can be cut, we calculate the number of 5 1/2 -inch pieces in 66 inches. To calculate this, we divide 66 by 5 1/2 (i.e. 66 divided by 11/2). 66 divided by 11/2 implies 66 multiplied by 2/11 = 132 / 11 = 12. Therefore, 12 pieces of 5 1/2 - inches pieces can be cut out.</span>

Y=6 because if you multiply 2/3 by 6 you get 12/3 and reducing it, that becomes 4. If you did 4 then the answer would be 8/3 and reducing that is 2 2/3

Factor the trinomial completely.<br> 4u^4 + 4u^3 - 6u^2

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

$4u^4+4u^3-6u^2$

First, factor out the GCF.

The GCF is 2u². Thus:

$=2u^2(2u^2+2u-3)$

And this is the simplest it can get.

So we are done :)
