Alayna is hanging a picture frame in the center of a wall that is 8 feet wide. If the picture frame is 22 inches wide, how far w

ill each side of the picture frame be from the edge of the wall (in inches)? First, estimate the amount and then find the exact measurement. In two or more complete sentences, explain how you solved the problem. You may include a diagram in your explanation, if you wish.

Answer:The wall is 8 ft wide and the picture frame is about 2 ft wide. The sides of the picture frame will be about (8-2)/4 = 3 ft from each wall.

However, since the picture frame is actually 22 inches wide, the exact distance would be (8*12 - 22)/2 = (96 - 22)/2 = 74/2 = 37inches (3 ft 1 inch) from the wall.

Solve the problem by first subtracting the width of the picture frame from the width of the wall. That will give the length of the wall that is not covered by the frame, or the "free length". Since the picture is centered in the width of the wall, there will be an equal distance from the frame to the wall on each side of the frame. Divide the free length by 2 to get the distance from the frame to the wall.    Hope its helps ;)

The independent variable is the variable that changes. In this case, that's the amount of cars washed per day. The dependent variable is the measured variable, which depends on the changed variable. In this case, it's the money collected.
$120/12=$10 per car
$10x30=$300

Explain how you could add 678 + 303 using mental math
Vaselesa [24]
678 + 303 = 981

Here are a few examples to get you started:
600 + 300 = 900 
<span>78 + 3 = 81 </span>
<span>900 + 81 = 981
</span>Here's another one:
678 = 600 + 70 + 8 
<span>303 = 300 + 00 + 3 </span>
<span>Add the ones place = 11 </span>
<span>Add the tens place = 70 </span>
<span>Add the hundreds place = 900 </span>
<span>Now add 900 + 70 + 11 = 981</span>
Hope this helps! :-)

While at the beach Daniel buys lunch for his family from a food stand he purchased one hotdog for $2.50 and three hamburgers if
Alex17521 [72]

The cost of each hamburger is $ 3.5

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, Daniel purchased one hotdog for $2.50 and three hamburgers

He spent $ 13 in total

Let "H" be the cost of each hamburger

From given,

one hotdog for $2.50 + three hamburgers each for "H" = $ 13

Thus we get,

1 \times 2.50 + 3 \times H = 13\\\\2.50 + 3H = 13\\\\\text{Solve the above equation for H}\\\\3H = 13 - 2.50\\\\3H = 10.5\\\\\text{Divide both sides of equation by 3}\\\\H = 3.5

Thus cost of each hamburger is $ 3.5
