Answer:

strawberry=7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

treat strawberry as x

add on proportions

1 1/8+ 3/4+ 1 3/4 + x = 4 1/2

(9+6+14)/8 + x = 9/2

29/8 +x = 9/2

x= 9/2 - 29/8

x= (36-29)/8

x=7/8

F(x+1)+f(x+2)=2x+3; f(x)=?

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

$F=\frac{-xf+f+2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1. \mathrm{Subtract\:}f\left(x+2\right)\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\
F\left(x+1\right)+f\left(x+2\right)-f\left(x+2\right)=2x+3f-f\left(x+2\right)

$

$2. \mathrm{Simplify}\\
F\left(x+1\right)=-xf+f+2x\\
$

$3. \mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}x+1;\quad \:x\ne \:-1\\
\frac{F\left(x+1\right)}{x+1}=-\frac{xf}{x+1}+\frac{f}{x+1}+\frac{2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1$

$4. \mathrm{Simplify}\\
F=\frac{-xf+f+2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1$

Final Answer: $F=\frac{-xf+f+2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1$

jester has a piece of wood measuring 1 and 2/3 m.he needs to cut in pieces measuring 3/4 m long.how many pieces of wood did jest

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

2 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Length = 1\frac{2}{3}m$

$Pieces = \frac{3}{4}m$

Required

Calculate the number of pieces

To do this, we have to divide the length of the wood by the length of each piece.

Represent this with x

$x= \frac{Length}{Pieces}$

$x= 1\frac{2}{3}/\frac{3}{4}$

Convert mixed numbers to improper fraction

$x= \frac{5}{3}/\frac{3}{4}$

Change division to multiplication

$x= \frac{5}{3}*\frac{4}{3}$

$x= \frac{20}{9}$

$x = 2.22$

<em></em> $x = 2$ <em> </em>
