Answer: 1008 letters
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, last Monday, a local mail carriers delivered 1,344 pieces of mail and of all the deliveries they made, 1 / 6 were magazines, 1 / 12 were packages, and the rest were letters. The fraction of letters will be:
= 1 - (1/6 + 1/12)
= 1 - (3/12)
= 9/12 = 3/4
We will now multiply 3/4 by 1344 to get the number of letters delivered.
= 3/4 × 1344
= 1008 letters
The question is to find out how many times 1/4 is equal to 1 1/2
First lets convert the total:
1 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2
now we need to find out a number that multiplied by 1/4 gives 3/2, that is an equation:
(1/4)x = 3/2
and solving for x:
x = (3/2)*4
x = 12/2
x = 6
therefore they will take 6 days to repave the whole street
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
15x-31+9×+11+×=180
25×-20=180
25×=200
×=8
15(8)-31=89
9(8)+11=83
8
Well, let's use the Euclidean algorithm:
164 = 4×37 + 16
37 = 2×16 + 5
16 = 3×5 + 1
Then working backwards,
1 = 16 - 3×5
1 = 16 - 3×(37 - 2×16) = 7×16 - 3×37
1 = 7×(164 - 4×37) - 3×37 = 7×164 - 31×37
so that x = 7 and y = -31.
Find the perimeter of the polygon with the vertices g(2, 4), h(2,−3), j(−2,−3), g(2, 4), h(2,−3), j(−2,−3), and k(−2, 4)k(−2, 4)
Julli [10]
<span>The distance between g and h is sqrt[(2-2)^2+(4+3)^2]=7
The distance between h and j is sqrt[(2+2)^2+(-3+3)^2]=4
The distance between j and k is sqrt[(-2+2)^2+(-3-4)^2]=7
The distance between k and g is sqrt[(-2-2)^2+(4-4)^2]=4
The perimeter of the polygon is 7+4+7+4=22</span>
