Answer:

3 and 1/2 minus 2/3 minus 1/3 =

7/2 minus 2/3 minus 1/3 =

21/6 minus 4/6 minus 2/6 =

17/6 - 2/6 =

15/6 = 5/2 = 2 and 1/2

Optionally, you can think of it this way:

He used 2/3 yards for the pillow and 1/3 yard for the scarf.

So he used 1 yard

3 and 1/2 minus 1 = 2 and 1/2 = 5/2

3 1/10 Yards

We know that Nate has 6 3/5 to begin with. He used 3 1/2. So, 6 3/5 - 3 1/2 = 3 1/10.

3. An elevator is moving upward with a speed of 14.3 m/s . Two seconds later, the elevator is still moving upward, but its speed

By definition of average acceleration,

<em>a</em> (average) = (3.7 m/s - 14.3 m/s) / (2.0 s) = -5.3 m/s²

Incline mats, or triangle mats, are offered with different levels of incline to help gymnasts learn basic moves. As the name may

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The length of the mat is 30 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let H be the hypotenuse of the incline mat, L its length and h its height.

It is given that H = L + 4 and h = L - 14. Now, using Pythagoras' theorem for right-angled triangles, H² = L² + h²

(L + 4)² = L² + (L - 14)²

Expanding, we have

L² + 8L + 16 = L² + L² -28L + 196

collecting all the terms to the right side, we have

L² + L² -28L + 196 - L² - 8L - 16 = 0

L² - 36L + 180 = 0

Using the quadratic formula, L =

L $\frac{-(-36) +/- \sqrt{(-36)^{2} -4X1X180} )}{2X1} = \frac{36 +/- \sqrt{1296 - 720} }{2} \\= \frac{36 +/- \sqrt{576} }{2} \\= \frac{36 +/- 24 )}{2}\\=\frac{36 + 24}{2} or \frac{36 - 24}{2} \\=\frac{60}{2} or \frac{12}{2} \\= 30 or 6$

We use the larger answer L = 30 inches since L = 6 would give h = L -14 = 6 - 14 = -8 .

So, the length of the mat is 30 inches.

8 people have to give a presentation in class today how many different orders can they speak in

kaheart [24]

Answer: 40,320

Step-by-step explanation:

By Permutation,

The number of arrangements for n things is given by n!.

[Here order matters]

Given: Number of people will give a presentation in class =8

Then, the number of different orders = 8!

= 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

= 40320

Hence, the number of different orders = 40,320
