Answer:

6 3/8 inches (6.375 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity we'll assume that both the photo and the poster board are square.  To determine the width of the border, subtract 8.5 inches from the poster board width 21.25 inches, obtaining 12.75 inches, and then divide that 12.75 inches by 2:  6.375 inches (6 3/8 inches).  

Set the photo 6 3/8 inches from each edge of the poster board.

juin [17]

Answer:

The farmer bought 36 pigs in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a farmer bought a number of pigs for $ 160, but, however, 8 of them died before he could sell the rest at a profit of 6 per pig, and his total profit was $ 8, to determine how many pigs did he originally buy the following calculation must be performed:

160 + 8 = 168

168/6 = 28

28 + 8 = 36

Thus, the farmer bought 36 pigs in all.

5. Solve the equation z^2 + 4z - 9 = 0 by completing the square.
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

A. Z = 2 + N13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

0=z2+4z−9

Step 1: Subtract z^2+4z-9 from both sides.

0−(z2+4z−9)=z2+4z−9−(z2+4z−9)

−z2−4z+9=0

For this equation: a=-1, b=-4, c=9

−1z2+−4z+9=0

Step 2: Use quadratic formula with a=-1, b=-4, c=9.

z=

−b±√b2−4ac

2a

z=

−(−4)±√(−4)2−4(−1)(9)

2(−1)

z=

4±√52

−2

z=−2−√13 or z=−2+√13

Please help this is important<br> -1.5x+12=2.5x-12
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

move all terms to the left:

-1.5x+12-(2.5x-12)=0

get rid of parentheses

-1.5x-2.5x+12+12=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variable.

-4x+24=0

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-4x=-24

x=-24/-4 - divide

x=+6
