Answer:

$\frac{5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x - 2y = 13 \\ 5x - 13 = 2y \\ 2y = 5x - 13 \\ y = \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{13}{2} \\ equating \: it \: with \\ y = mx + b \\ slope(m) = \frac{5}{2}$

A board that measures 3/4 feet long is cut into 6 equal pieces. What is the length of each piece?

shusha [124]

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that there is a $\frac{3}{4}$ feet long board and that it is split into 6 pieces.

With that information, we can split it by doing the following:

1. $\frac{3}{4} *\frac{1}{6}$

We can do this because we have a board that is 0.75 feet long and we multiply it by one sixth because we want to divide a fraction and to do that we have to flip the fraction.

After doing that, we get our answer of $\frac{3}{24}=\frac{1}{8}$

This means that each piece is $\frac{1}{8}$ feet long.

Cheers!
