Mathematics

The length of each piece is 0.1 yard.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The length of the pipe is \frac{1}{2} yard.

The pipe is cut into 5 equal pieces.

We have to find the length of the each piece.

The length of the each piece is calculated by dividing the pipe's initial length(L) by the the number of pieces(N).

Length of the each piece = \frac{L}{N}.

=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{5}. ( 5 is also written as \frac{5}{1} ⇒ \frac{\frac{1}{2} }{\frac{5}{1} }.)

=\frac{1}{2}×\frac{1}{5}.

= \frac{1}{10}.

= 0.1 yard.

Length of the each piece = 0.1 yard.

angle A and angle B are complementary angles. If m angle A = (x-16)degrees and m angle B = (3x+28)degrees, then find the measure
Ahat [919]

Answer:

4x \times 448

Step-by-step explanation:

A=

a = (x - 16)

b = (3x + 28)

So you add :

x \: and3x

To get

4x

Then you do :

16 \times 28

To get :

448

Answer is :

4x \times 448

Who would have a difficult time responding to this survey question? Select all that apply.
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

18 and 65

Step-by-step explanation:

under 18 would be 17 and under, therefore not including 18 year olds. obviously they are not 19 yet either, so they wouldn't fall into either category, therefore they may be unsure of what to answer.

same with 65 year olds; they are more than 64 year old, but not yet /over/ 65, therefore they would not fit into either category either.

Solve for x:<br> 4x – 7 = 8x + 33
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

To solve this question we will use PEMDAS (order of operations)

4x−7=8x+33

Subtract 8x from both sides.

4x−7−8x=33

Combine 4x and −8x to get −4x.

−4x−7=33

Add 7 to both sides.

−4x=33+7

Add 33 and 7 to get 40.

−4x=40

Divide both sides by −4.

x= 40/-4

Divide 40 by −4 to get −10.

x=−10
