Answer: shorter: 24 longer: 41
Step-by-step explanation: we need to write an equation. x+(2x-7)=65. We don’t need the parentheses, but I put them so it would make it a bit more clear. Simplify: 3x-7=65. Add 7 to both sides: 3x=72. Divide by three: 72/3=24 Now we know the shorter piece is 24. 24x2-7=48-7=41. We know these are correct because 24+41=65
Answer:
3. 9
4. 5 pounds
5. 5/12 of a pound
Step-by-step explanation:
3. "at least 3/8" means to include that column in the count.
4. 3(1/4) + 4(3/8 ) + 3(1/2) + 2(5/8)
= 3/4 + 12/8 + 3/2 + 10/8 but we need a common denominator. LMK in the comments if you need help with that
= 6/8 + 12/8 + 12/8 + 10/8
= 40/8
= 5 pounds.
5. For the average, we add up all the weights, then divide by the number of kittens. Thankfully, we just added everything up in #4. Since we're going to be dividing 5 by 12, we'll end up with a decimal. But since the whole problem was written in fractions, we'll keep it in fractions.
40/8 divided by 12 kittens
40/8 divided by 12 = 40/8 muliplied by the inverse of 12 which is 1/12
40/8 x 1/12
= 40/96
Our numerator and denominator can be evenly dived by 8, so the fraction is reduced to
= 5/12
I'm happy to answer any questions.
Since one of the angles is 90 degrees (right angle) and the other two angles are less than 90 degrees (acute angles) it is a right triangle because it cousins of right angle. Hope this helped!
Since there is 16 fluid ounces in a pint, you would multiply 16x3 which is 48.
Hope this helps!
