Given:
long stick: 3 4/5 feet
short stick: 3 1/2 feet

convert mix fractions into improper fractions:

3 4/5 = (3*5)+4/5 = 19/5  long stick
3 1/2 = (3*2)+1/2 = 7/2  short stick

19/5 - 7/2 ⇒ (19/5 * 2/2) - (7/2 * 5/5) = 38/10 - 35/10 = (38 - 35)/10 = 3/10

3/10 feet should be cut from the longer stick so that the two walking sticks will be the same length.

3 4/5 ft = 45.6 inches  long stick
3 1/2 ft = 42 inches   short stick
3/10 ft = 3.6 inches  to be cut from long stick

45.6 inches - 3.6 inches = 42 inches

Find the distance between the two points.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points is

d^2=(y2-y1)^2+(x2-x1)^2

D) points (0,0) and (9,12)

d^2=(9-0)^2+(12-0)^2

d^2=81+144

d^2=225

d=15

E) points (1,2) and (-3,5)

d^2=(-3-1)^2+(5-2)^2

d^2=16+9

d^2=25

d=5

What is (4a²)³÷8a²? can you please answer in normal number form (not like 3²)
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

8a^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! (4a^2)^3=4\cdot4\cdot4\cdot a^2\cdot a^2\cdot a^2=64a^6because if you multiply numbers with exponents you add the exponents.

Now we've got\frac{64a^6}{8a^2}=8a^4.

Sadly it has to be in exponential form. You can substitute a into the equation if you know a.
