Answer:
Shorter piece length is 18 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's marked first piece with x and second with y
x + y = 42
Given ratio is x : y = 3 : 4
From this proportion we get
x = 3 c and y = 4 c where c is coefficient of proportionality
when we replace this in initial equation we get
3 c + 4 c = 42 => 7 c = 42 => c = 42/7 = 6 c = 6
x = 3 · 6 = 18 inches and z = 4 · 6 = 24 inches
shorter piece is x = 18 inches
God with you!!!
The answer is 16 bc yeah i said it was
Answer: 3/2 s-6
hope i helped
if you can give me brainliest that would be great
No he is not correct .
Break apart the number 8,184
You will get
8000 + 100 + 80 + 4
The numbers we are comparing are 8000 and 80
80 x 10 = 800
The number we are looking for is 8000
This makes the claim that one 8 is 10 times greater false as it is in fact 100 times as great.
A) the probability is 1 in 6 (1/6); there are six numbers and only one is 6, therefore 1 in 6
B) the probability is 5 in 6 (5/6); there are 6 numbers and only one is not 6, therefore 5 in 6
C) the probability of rolling a 6 is 1 in 6 and the probability of not rolling a 6 is 5 in 6
D) the probability is again 1 in 6 (1/6); 120 divided by 6 is 20, and 20/120 simplifies to 1/6
thats the best i can do to explain
