Answer:

7 pieces, with a short piece left over (the leftover piece is 1/24 yd long).

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the available 5/8 yd by 1/12 yd/ribbon to determine the number of pieces of 1/12 yd length could be obtained:

5

---

8

=======  This can be evaluated by inverting the 1/12 and then multiplying.

 1

-----

12

We get 5/8 times 12/1, or 60/8, which is equal to 7 4/8 pieces.

Tom was able to cut 7  1/12-yd pieces from the 5/8 yd piece, and has a 1/24  yd piece left over / remaining.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The fourth choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because since 90 miles is basically counted as your first day, you do the number of days, n, minus 1 and then multiply it by 5 to find the number of miles walked after the first day. Then you add it to 90.

The sum of the angle measures of a triangle is 180°. Find the value of x. Then find the angle measures of the triangle.
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

  • x = 43
  • 43°, 51°, 86°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles is ...

  x° + (x +8)° + 2x° = 180°

  4x +8 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, divide by °

  x +2 = 45 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

  x = 43 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

  x +8 = 51

  2x = 86

The angles are 43°, 51°, 86°.

Henry received $500 for his birthday which he intends to invest in an account that pays simple interest at the rate of 12% per y
Mila [183]

Answer:

$560

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Principal, P= $500

Interest rate, r = 12% per year

Amount in account after 1 year

Time = 1 year

Using the relation :

A = P(1 + rt)

A = final amount in account

A = $500(1 + 0.12(1))

A = $500(1 + 0.12)

A = $500(1.12)

A = $560

Help me please i cant get it
Leni [432]

Answer:

Let's define the cost of the cheaper game as X, and the cost of the pricer game as Y.

The total cost of both games is:

X + Y

We know that both games cost just above AED 80

Then:

X + Y > AED 80

From this, we want to prove that at least one of the games costed more than AED 40.

Now let's play with the possible prices of X, there are two possible cases:

X is larger than AED 40

X is equal to or smaller than AED 40.

If X is more than AED 40, then we have a game that costed more than AED 40.

If X is less than or equal to AED 40, then:

X ≥ AED 40

Now let's take the maximum value of X in this scenario, this is:

X = AED 40

Replacing this in the first inequality, we get:

X + Y > AED 80

Replacing the value of X we get:

AED 40 + Y  > AED 80

Y > AED 80 - AED 40

Y > AED 40

So when X is equal or smaller than AED 40, the value of Y is larger than AED 40.

So we proven that in all the possible cases, at least one of the two games costs more than AED 40.
