Answer:

2 1/8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we make the fractions into improper fractions:

5 5/8 = 45/8

3 1/2 = 7/2

Now we make them to have the same denominator

7/2 = 28/8

Now we substract

45/8 - 28/8 = 17/8

17/8 =  2  1/8 inches

A regular section of land made up of wheat farms has a length of 5x10^4 and the width of 6x10^3 what is the area of the length i
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The Area of land is 30 × 10^{7} meters² .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The length of rectangular wheat farm land = L = 5 × 10^{4}  meter

The width of rectangular wheat farm land = w = 6 × 10^{3}  meter

Let The Area of land = A meters²

Now, According to question

∵ Land is in rectangular shape

And we know, Area of rectangle = length × width

∴ Area of land =  Area of rectangle = length × width

Or, A = L × w

Or, A = 5 × 10^{4}  meter × 6 × 10^{3}  meter

Or , A = 30 × 10^{4+3}

i.e A = 30 × 10^{7}  meters²

So, The Area of land = A  = 30 × 10^{7} meters²

Hence,The Area of land is 30 × 10^{7} meters² . Answer

Raymond was riding a zip-cable from the top of a viewing post. The cable is 65 yards long. The viewing post is 52 yards high and
grin007 [14]
In order to figure out the horizontal distance Raymond travels using his zip cable, we may simply apply Pythagoras theorem which is, for a right triangle:
hypotenuse² = base² + height²
base = √(hypotenuse² - height²)
base = √(65² - 52²)
base =  39 yards
Raymond will travel a horizontal distance of 39 yards.

How do i find the solution to x+y= -2 y=x+2
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

x = -2 and y = 0

Explanation:

You just put the value of one variable in terms of the other in one of the two equations. Then, solve it and BOOM you'll have your solution.

x + y = -2 ........... (a)

y = x + 2 ............ (b)

Put (b) in (a),

x + (x + 2) = -2

2x = -4 => x = -2

Put x = -2 in (b),

y = x + 2 = -2+2 = 0

Thus, x=-2 and y=0
