Answer: Each piece would be 3/4 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

If the piece of  lumber is 2 1/4 ft long, and it is cut into 3 pieces then divide

2 1/4 by 3 to find out how long each piece of cut wood would be.

2 1/4  is the same as 9/4

\frac{9}{4} / \frac{3}{1} = 9/12  which also simplifies to  3/4

are the graphs of the lines in the pair parallel? explain. y equals two thirds x minus 17. 4 x minus 6 y equals negative 6. a. n
nasty-shy [4]
The slope of the line is the quotient when the negative of the numerical coefficient of x is divided by the numerical coefficient of y. The slope of the first line is 2/3 and that of the second line is -4/-6 or 2/3. Thus, the answer is letter C.

The Sugar Sweet Company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market. The first company charges $7500 to rent
Oduvanchick [21]
This seems to be an incomplete question. I think you want to know the amount of sugar at which both company will charge the same. Based on this idea, i am answering the question. 
Let us assume the quantity of sugar = x
Then
For company A, charge = 7500 + 125.25x
For company B, charge = 5995 + 200.50x
Now
7500 + 125.25x = 5995 + 200.50x
7500 - 5995 = 200.50x - 125.25x
1505 = 75.25x
x = 20
From the above deduction it can be concluded that the quantity of sugar at which the prices of both the companies will be the same is 20 ton.

strojnjashka [21]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: 
(1) 1 ton is equal to 2,000 pounds. If a male African elephant weighs 7 tons, then in pounds, it has 14,000 pounds.
African lion = (1 / 40) * 14,000
African lion = 350 pounds
So, African lion weighs 350 pounds.

A castle under siege has enough food for 300 men for 90 days. (Level 6) After 40 days, 150 men have left the castle.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

45 days

Step-by-step explanation:

300 men  = 90 days

the percentage of food consumed by one man

= ( 90 / 300 ) * 100

= 30%  = 0.3

After 40 days

150 men remain to consume at 30%

determine the number of days the remaining food will last ( x )

= x / 150 = 0.3

therefore ; X = 150 * 0.3 = 45 days
