Answer:
The original piece of wood is 108 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given ratio, the shortest is of the ratio 5 and the longest is of the ratio 7
Let the original piece of wood be x
so the sum of the ratios will be;
5 + 6 + 6 + 7 = 24
the shortest length would be 5/24 * x
= 5x/24
the longest will be 7/24 * x = 7x/24
From the question;
7x/24 -5x/24 = 9
(7x-5x) = 24(9)
2x = 24(9)
x = (24 * 9)/2
x = 108 cm
Answer:
He is incorrect in this statement because 38 and 40 both have factors, other than 1 x itself. Prime numbers are numbers the only have 1 factor pair, and that is 1 x itself. Factors are the numbers you multiply to get the end result, and an example is 10x4=40. The factors of 40 are 8x5, 4x10, 2x20, and of course, 1x40. The factors of 38 are 2x19, and 1x38.
Answer:
They bought 6.24 pounds of hamburger meat
Explanation:
We are given that:
The first friend brought 2.7 pounds of hamburger meat
The second friend brought 3.54 pounds of hamburger meat
The total amount of hamburger meat they both brought would be simply the summation of what they brought individually.
This means that:
Total amount brought = 2.7 + 3.54
Total amount brought = 6.24 pounds of hamburger meat
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
An = 32 - (4*(n-1))
Step-by-step explanation:
the starting term for this pattern is 32 (which you will need to include in the "rule")
you also know that the next term is the previous term - 4
so!
we can write this pattern as
An = 32 - (4*(n-1))
An = any number of term in the pattern
- ex). A2 = 28, A3 = 24, etc
n = the nth term
- the 3rd term = 24, the fourth term = 20, etc
Hoi!
The correct answer would be "Daryl received two 3's as scores on his paper from the readers, but Sheila received two 6's."
When placing a number in a sentence before an S, it is to always have an apostrophe. Along with this, this is the only sentence that uses the correct form of "readers", since in this sentence, "readers" is being used as a plural noun, not a possessive noun.
Possessive nouns contain an apostrophe to show that something belongs to someone else.
Ex: That cat is her's.
The possessive noun is "her's" because it's showing that she is the owner of the cat.
As for plural tense, it speaks for more than one person or object.
Ex: The cats scrambled up the tree.
The plural noun is "cats" because it's referring to more than one cat.
