Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = small barrettes
y = large barrettes
13x + 11y = 142.......multiply by -1
13x + 12y = 149
-----------------------
-13x - 11y = -142 (result of multiplying by -1)
13x + 12y = 149
------------------------add
y = 7..........large barrettes used 7 yards
13x + 11y = 142
13x + 11(7) = 142
13x + 77 = 142
13x = 142 - 77
13x = 65
x = 65/13
x = 5........small barrettes used 5 yards
I think construction jobs might use it
1 = 32
2 = 148
3 = 32
4 = 148
5 = 32
6 = 148
7 = 32
8 = 148
Answer:
7.8×10⁷
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to keep the coefficient (7.8) between 1 and 10 to achieve a normalized notation. Otherwise 78×10⁶ would also be an option.
