Answer:

  • laura's distance = max's distance + 2 3/4 feet
  • max's distance = 5 feet 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If you consider the English-language meaning of the description of the distances, you can see there might be several ways you could write an equation that says the same thing. Some of them are ...

  laura's distance = max's distance + 2 3/4 feet

  laura's distance - max's distance = 2 3/4 feet

  laura's distance - 2 3/4 feet = max's distance

The first of these equations is shown as an answer above. The last of these equations gives max's distance directly, so is the most useful for finding that value.

  laura's distance - 2 3/4 feet = max's distance

  8 1/6 feet - 2 3/4 feet = max's distance

  5 5/12 feet = max's distance . . . . . . do the arithmetic

_____

Describing addition and subtraction of mixed numbers is beyond the scope of this answer. Many calculators can work with fractions directly, in case you cannot do it by hand.

Which equation represents the relationship between the side length, x, and the perimeter, y? y = one-fourth x y = 4x y = x + 13.
elixir [45]

Answer: B.

Y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the side of a shape is x

The perimeter of the shape is y

Perimeter of a rectangle can be expressed as:

P = 2L + 2W

Where L = length and W = width

But if the shape is a square, and the side of the shape is x, then, the perimeter will be

P = 4x

Where perimeter P = Y

Therefore, perimeter Y will be;

Y = 4x

Therefore, the correct answer is B which is:

Y = 4x

Which expression is equivalent to 10x2y + 25x2?
babymother [125]
10 x^{2} y +25 x^{2}  = 5 x^{2} ( \frac{10 x^{2} y +25 x^{2} }{5 x^{2} })  = 5 x^{2} ( \frac{10 x^{2} y}{5 x^{2} } +  \frac{25 x^{2} }{5 x^{2} } ) = 5 x^{2} ( \frac{2y}{1} +  \frac{5}{1} )

Answer A   5x² * ( 2y + 5)
