Answer:

The fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the total piece of wood is of length 1.

It is provided that Talia used \frac{1}{3} of the piece of wood for the base of he project.

She use \frac{1}{4} of the piece of wood for the for the vertical support.

The remaining wood she used for horizontal support.

The amount of wood used for horizontal support can be computed by the subtracting the amount of wood used for base of the project and vertical support form 1.

Compute the amount of wood used for horizontal support as follows:

Horizontal\ support=1-Base\ of\ project-Vertical\ support\\= 1 - \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\\  =\frac{12-4-3}{12} \\=\frac{5}{12}

Thus, the fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.

Convert 5 1/8 to a fractional notation
nataly862011 [7]
Basically speaking, a fractional notation is the same as a fraction itself. Thus, the best way to express the given problem in here would be to turn it into a fraction. Since the given variable is a mixed number, meaning that it is a whole number and a fraction combined, it can be turned into just a fraction or more specifically, an improper fraction. To do this, we have to take the denominator and multiply it to the whole number. After that, the product would be added to the numerator. The sum would be the new numerator and the denominator would remain the same. Thus, the answer would be 41/8

Answer:

12 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Josiah and kiri are each saving money josiah starts with 100$ in savings accound and adds 5$ per week . Kiri with 40$ in her savings account adds 10$ each week after how weeks Josiah and kiri will have the same amount of money in their savings account

Josiah:

100 + 5w

Kiri:

40 + 10w

Where,

w = number of weeks

After how weeks Josiah and kiri will have the same amount of money in their savings account

Equate the savings of the both of them

100 + 5w = 40 + 10w

100 - 40 = 10w - 5w

60 = 5w

w = 60/5

= 12

w = 12 weeks

Josiah and kiri will have the same amount of money in their savings account after 12 weeks
