Answer:

Mrs. Potts needs 72 feet of fencing.

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the perimeter of the rectangular garden, which is 24 yards. You then convert the yards to feet. There are 3 feet in a yard. You multiply 24 by 3 to get your final answer of 72 feet.

Mr. Blue drove from Allston to Brockton, a distance of 105 miles. On his way back, he increased his speed by 10 mph. If the jour
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

His original speed was 60 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed formula is shown below:

speed = distance / time

For the first leg of the trip Mr. Blue drove at a speed of "x" mph, for a distance of 105 miles, therefore the time that took to complete the trip is:

time 1 = distance / speed

time 1 = 105 / x h

On the second leg of the trip Mr. Blue drove faster at a speed of "x + 10" mph, so the time it took him to complete the trip was 15 minutes less, therfore:

time 2 = time1 - (15/60) = (105/x) - 0.25 = (105 - 0.25*x)/x h

Applyint the time and speed from the second leg to the average speed formula we have:

x + 10 = {105/[(105 - 0.25*x)/x]}

x + 10 = 105*x/(105 - 0.25*x)

(x + 10)*(105 - 0.25*x) = 105*x

105*x + 1050 -0.25*x² - 2.5*x = 105*x

-0.25*x² -2.5*x + 1050 = 0 /(-0.25)

x² + 10*x - 4200 = 0

x1 = [-(10) + sqrt((10)² - 4*(1)*(-4200))]/2 = 60

x2 = [-(10) - sqrt((10)² - 4*(1)*(-4200))]/2 = -70

Since his speed couldn't be negative the only possible value was 60 mph.

Andre draws a tape diagram for 3÷2/3
bija089 [108]

Answer:

No I do not agree with Andre says that 3 divided by 2/3 Solving for 3 ÷ 2/3

3 ÷ 2/3

= 3 × 3/2

= 9/2

= 4 1/2

Therefore, 3 divided by 2/3 is 4 1/2

Andre's reasoning is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is incorrect

Let's divide and compare the sum

3 : 2/3 = 3*3/2 = 9/2 = 4 1/2

and

There are four 2/3 fractions and one 1/3 fraction

The 1/3 fraction is 1/2 of 2/3 fraction so instead of counting 1/3 as 1/3 it should be counted as 1/2

Marco has a piece of wood that measures 9 x 1/10 + 6 x 1/100 + 4 x 1/1000 how can this measurement be written as a decimal? you
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The decimal number is 0.964

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

9(\frac{1}{10})+ 6(\frac{1}{100})+4(\frac{1}{1,000})

step 1

Multiply each fraction by the whole number

(\frac{9}{10})+ (\frac{6}{100})+(\frac{4}{1,000})

step 2

Convert each fraction in a decimal number

Remember

Move the decimal point to the left as many places as there are zeros in the factor.

Move the decimal point one step to the left (10 has one zero).

Move the decimal point two steps to the left (100 has two zeros)

Move the decimal point three steps to the left (1000 has three zeros)

0.9+0.06+0.004

step 3

Adds the number

0.964
