Answer:

3 1/5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion:

\frac{1}{2\frac{2}{7} } =\frac{1\frac{2}{5} }{x} , where x is how long the pants are in real life

Cross multiply:

x = (2 2/7) * (1 2/5)

It's easier if we have improper fractions, so convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions:

2 2/7 = 16/7

1 2/5 = 7/5

Now, put these back in:

x = (16/7) * (7/5) = 16/5 = 3 1/5

Thus, in real life, the pants would be 3 1/5 ft long.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

3⅕ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1 in --> 2 2/7 ft

2 2/7 = 16/7

1 2/5 in = 7/5 in

7/5 × 16/7 = 16/5 ft

3 1/5 ft

Julia has to mow two yards she will need 13/16 gallon of gas to mow the first yard and 2/5 gallon to mow the second yard she has
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Julia has  enough gas to mow the two yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Julia needs \frac{13}{16} gallon of gas to mow first yard.

Julia needs \frac{2}{5} gallon of gas to mow second yard.

Julia has a total of 1\frac{1}{2} gallon of gas in in her can.

To find whether she has enough to mow both yards.

Solution:

Total gallons of gas needed to mow two yards can be found out by :

⇒ \frac{13}{16}+\frac{2}{5}

Taking LCD =80.

⇒ \frac{13\times 5}{16\times 5}+\frac{2\times 16}{5\times 16}

⇒ \frac{65}{80}+\frac{32}{80}

Adding the numerators.

⇒ \frac{97}{80}

⇒ 1.2125 gallons

Julia has 1\frac{1}{2} gallon = 1.5 gallons of gas in in her can.

Since  1.5>1.21 , thus we can say that Julia has enough gas to mow the two yards.

Solve 4x + 1 = 3 – 2x
romanna [79]

Answer:

x = 1/3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

4x + 1 = 3 - 2x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Add 2x on both sides:                    6x + 1 = 3
  2. Subtract 1 on both sides:                6x = 2
  3. Divide 6 on both sides:                   x = 1/3

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    4(1/3) + 1 = 3 - 2(1/3)
  2. Multiply:                        4/3 + 1 = 3 - 2/3
  3. Add/Subtract:               7/3 = 7/3

Here we see that 7/3 does indeed equal 7/3.

∴ x = 1/3 is a solution of the equation.
