Answer:

7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the height of Jenny H. Then, we have that:

Height of Sally = (7/8)*H

Height of May = (6/8)*H

To compare the height of Sally and May, we just need to divide them:

Height of Sally / Height of May = (7/8)*H / (6/8)*H

= (7/8) / (6/8) = (7/8) * (8/6) = 7/6

So Sally is 7/6 times higher than May.

4x-16=-20 solve for the x
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-16=-20

Get x to one side by subtracting it.

-16=-20-4x

Add the 20 on both sides.

-16+20=-4x

Simplify

4=-4x

4/-4=-4x/-4

-1=x

x=-1

Derek was 4 years 2 months old when he joined school. Today he is 11 years 1 month old. For how long has he been in school?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

hi

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all,we should do this:

1 year is 12 month

amd 4 year is 48 month(12×4)

then we must add 2 months (wich is given) to 48

He was 50 months old when he started school

and we should find how old is he now

11 ×12=132months

132+1=133months

133-50=83 ( he has been 83 months in school)

let's turn it to years 6 years 11 months

( for finding years you should divide 83 to 12)

hope it helps
