Answer: 13 1/8
Explanation: since he cut two pieces and each piece is 4 1/4 you’re going to add 4 1/4 to 4 1/2 which makes it two pieces and the sum would be 8 1/2 then you’re going to 8 1/2 from the original length, 21 5/8 which is going to leave you with the remaining length being 13 1/8.
Hope it helps:)
B, because it has no equal, greater than, or less to sign
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
12-8=8
For any equation with more than one variable, there is either no solution or infinitely many solutions.
If we can find just <em>one</em> solution that works, that would eliminate the possibility of there being no solution, and so we could prove it to have infinitely many solutions.
Can we come up with at least one solution to these equations? Of course!
For x=y
Thinking of two equal numbers is extremely easy. For instance, if we chose x to be 2 and y to be 2, that's a solution right there! Thus x=y has infinitely many solutions.
It's just as easy picking two numbers that are equal when you multiply them by 1.25. Think back to the multiplication property of equality. If two things are equal, and you multiply them by a number, they will still be equal. So all we need is, once again, two equal numbers. 2 and 2, boom and boom. 1.25x=1.25y has infinitely many solutions as well.
You can plug in the numbers to check.
Y - 2x > 17
(8) -2(-5) > 17
8 + 10 > 17
18 > 17
This is true so
Final answer:
Yes, (-5,8) is a solution
