Marge cuts 16 pieces.

Each piece has a length of 3/8 inches

she needs to cut 16 pieces of 3/8 inches each

amount of tape needed - $\frac{16}{1}*\frac{3}{8}$

when mulitplying numbers with fractions, numerators should be multiplied by numerators and denominators by denominators

$\frac{16*3}{1*8} = \frac{48}{8} = 6$

amount of tape needed = 6 inches

16 x 3/8 so 16/1 x 3/8 = 48/8. 48 divided by 8 is 6. So 6 inches.

A family uses 1,303 kWh of electric energy in a month. If the power company charges $0.08 per kilowatt hour, what is the total e

prisoha [69]

The total electric energy bill for the month is $\$104.24$

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that

Electric energy consumed by family in a month = 1303 kWh

Power Company charges $\$0.08$ per kilowatt hour

Need to calculate total electric energy bill for the month.

Price of 1 kilowatt hour = $\$0.08$

$\text { Price of } 1303 \text { kilowatt hour }=1303 \text { x Price of } 1 \text { kilowatt hour }=1303 \times 0.08=\$ 104.24$

Total electric energy bill for the month = Price of Electric energy consumed by family in a month = Price of 1303 kilowatt hour = $\$104.24$

I don’t know how to do this lol this is a test

Answer:

D) $x+y=-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, if you plug in the x and y-coordinates into an equation, both sides should work out to be equal to each other:

Since $-5+2\neq 3$ , we can eliminate choice A

Since $-5-2\neq -3$ , we can eliminate choice B

Since $-5-2\neq 3$ , we can eliminate choice C

Therefore, since $-5+2=-3$ , then D is correct. Also, $3+(-6)=-3$

What is the perimeter of rhombus LMNO? 20 units 24 units 40 units 48 units

NeTakaya

The little lines on each side of the rhombus mean that all the sides are the same length.

We can set line LM and MN equal to solve for X, then we can solve the length of a side.

3x-3 = x+7

Add 3 to each side:
3x = x +10

Subtract x from each side:

2x = 10

Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
x = 5

Now we have the value for x, replace x in one of the side formulas:

x +7 = 5+7 = 12

Each side = 12 units.

The perimeter would be 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = 48 units.
