<h3>Answer:   54</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

T = tens digit

U = units digit (aka ones digit)

A number like 27 is really 20+7 = 2*10 + 7*1 = 10*2 + 1*7. We have 2 in the tens digit and 7 in the units digit. So 27 can be written in the form 10T + U where T = 2 and U = 7. Reversing the digits gives 72, so T = 7 and U = 2 now. Clearly the difference between the digits 7 and 2 is not 1, so 27 or 72 is not the answer (as it's just an example).

-----------------------

Let T be larger than U. This doesn't work if T = U.

Because T is larger, saying "The difference between the digits is 1" means T - U = 1. We can isolate T to get T = U+1. We'll use this later.

-----------------------

If T > U, then the original number 10T+U reverses to the new number 10U+T and it becomes smaller. We are told that it becomes 5/6 of what it used to be.

So,

new number = (5/6)*(old number)

10U + T = (5/6)(10T + U)

6(10U + T) = 5(10T + U)

60U + 6T = 50T + 5U

60U + 6(U+1) = 50(U+1) + 5U ... plug in T = U+1

60U + 6U + 6 = 50U + 50 + 5U

66U + 6 = 55U + 50

66U - 55U = 50-6

11U = 44

U = 44/11

U = 4 is the units digit of the original number

T = U+1

T = 4+1

T = 5 is the tens digit of the original number

The original number is therefore 10T + U = 10*5+4 = 54.

We see the difference in their digits is T-U = 5-4 = 1

The reverse of 54 is 45. The number 45 is 5/6 of 54

45 = (5/6)*54

A contractor is paving 1 mile 201.25 yards of a county road. How long is this portion of the road in feet and inches?
Natali5045456 [20]

A contractor is paving 1 mile 201.25 yards of a county road

Given distance is 1 mile and 201.25 yards

First we will convert 1 mile in feet.

1 mile = 5280 feet

Now we will convert 201.25 yards in feet

1 yard = 3 ft

201.25 yards = 201.25\times3=603.75 feet

So total distance in feet is = 5280+603.75 = 5883.75 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

0.75 feet = 12\times0.75=9 inches

This is 5883 feet and 9 inches.

Which expression represents the product of negative three-fourths x and –8x? negative 35 over 4 x 6x negative 35 over 4 x square
valentinak56 [21]

The expression that represents the product of negative three-fourths x and –8x is 6x^2

<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression?</h3>

The statement is given as:

the product of negative three-fourths x and –8x

Rewrite properly as:

-3x/4 * -8x

Divide 4 and 8 by 4

-3x * -2x

Multiply -3 and -2

6x * x

Multiply x and x

6x^2

Hence, the expression that represents the product of negative three-fourths x and –8x is 6x^2
