I believe they compare because both butterflies can have a wingspan of 3.5 in. Hope this helps
It's a trick question. There are an infinite number of mixed numbers between 3 and 4 that can multiply to equal 12 (for example, 3 and 3/7 times 3 and 1/2), but there are no mixed numbers between 3 and 4 that can multiply to equal 9. 3 times 3 is not between them but is 3, but that quantity is excluded because 3<x<4. Anything even a small bit above the number 3 would have to be multiplied by 2 and some fraction, which would not be between 3 and 4.
P = 2(L + W)
L = W + 3
these would be ur equations...and u would sub in 26 for P
the answer is 2. because you need to subtract the fractions once you do that you’ll get -2 • (-1) then multiple you’ll have 2 .
