First convert the feet to inches:
3 feet= 36 in.; 4 feet=48 in.
Make an equation for each one:
Type A: h=36+15x
Type B: h=48+10x
Since the questions wants the heights to be equal, h=h so you can substitute so you have:
36+15x=48+10x
5x=12
x=2 2/5 years or 2.4 years
Answer:
About 6 inches tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
One book has a thickness of 2
inches.
Another book has a thickness of 3.56 inches
Converting 2 inches to decimals will give; 2.4285714286 inches
If the books are stacked together, they become 2.4285714286 inches + 3.56 inches = 5.988571429 inches tall or about 6 inches tall (answer rounded up to nearest whole number).
Answer:
the answer is 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
x/y=2/9
y=9/2 x
Steps
find the Least Common Multiple of the denominators (which is called the Least Common Denominator).
Change each fraction (using equivalent fractions) to make their denominators the same as the least common denominator.
Then add (or subtract) the fractions, as we wish!
your denominators stay the same so its 20
This would be 10-2 which would equal 8
