Answer:

The remaining wood will be 1.25 inches shorter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Only 10 cuts are required to cut the board into 11 equally sized lengths.  Thus, the length of the board after these cuts have been made will be

10(0.125 inches), or 1.25 inches, shorter.

Consider a single spin of the spinner.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

landing on a shaded portion and landing on an even number ; landing on a shaded portion and landing on a number greater than 3 ; landing on an unshaded portion and landing on an odd number ; and landing on an unshaded portion and landing on a number less than 2.

Explanation:

Mutually exclusive events are events that cannot occur at the same time.  Our spinner has two grey sections, on 1 and 3; and two white sections, on 2 and 4.

This means that the spinner cannot land on a shaded (grey) portion and land on an even number at the same time, since the grey sections are numbered 2 and 4, both of which are even numbers.

The spinner also cannot land on a shaded (grey) portion and land on a number greater than 3 at the same time; this is because the only number greater than 3 on the spinner is 4, which is a white portion.

The spinner cannot land on an unshaded (white) portion and land on an odd number, since the white sections are labeled 2 and 4, which are both even.

The only number on the spinner less than 2 is 1, which is grey; this means the spinner cannot land on a number less than 2 and an unshaded (white) portion at the same time.

Dave has $3000 more in a passbook account than in a money market.
Goryan [66]

The amount in the passbook account is $11,000 and the money in the money market account is $8000

Let:

a represent the unknown amount in the passbook account

b represent the unknown amount in the money market account

From the question, the following information can be gathered:

  • The money in the passbook account exceeds the amount in the money market account.

This information can be represented with this equation : a - b = 3000

  • The interest paid on the passbook account exceeds the interest paid on the money market account.

This information can be represented with this equation : 0.08a - 0.10b = 80

The two equations gotten above would be solved using simultaneous equation and the elimination method

a - b = 3000 equation 1

0.08a - 0.10b = 80 equation 2

Multiply equation 1 by 0.08

0.08 - 0.08b = 240 equation 3

Subtract equation 2 from 3

0.02b = 160

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.02

b = 8000

Substitute for b in equation 1

a - 8000 = 3000

Add 8000 to both sides

a = 11,000
