there are 12 inches in 1 foot, so 6 inches is really just half a foot, thus 3'6" is really just 3.5' or 3½ feet.

now, let's convert those mixed fractions to improper fractions and then subtract, bearing in mind our LCD will be 8.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{5}{8}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 8+5}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{45}{8}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{7}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{45}{8}-\cfrac{7}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{using the LCD of 8}}{\cfrac{(1)45~~-~~(4)7}{8}}\implies \cfrac{45-28}{8}\implies \cfrac{17}{8}\implies 2\frac{1}{8}

She has 1 and 1/8 foot of wood left.

3 feet and 6 inches is equal to 3 and 1/2 feet.

3 and 1/2 feet are also equal to 3 and 4/8 feet.

Subtract 3 4/8 from 4 5/8.

4 5/8 - 3 4/8 = 1 1/8.

Hope this helps!

If it does, it would help me a lot if you could make me brainliest.

Pls help for number 6
Vlad1618 [11]
A: 45x + 30y = 1350
Since we don’t know how many adults and children are in the group, we use x and y

b: x-intercept= 30 y-intercept=45
To find the x-intercept you need to isolate the variable. 45x/45 = x
Then you do the same thing to the other side. 1350/45 = 30
So x=30
Same thing with the y-intercept.
30y/30 = y 1350/30 = 45
y=45 (Not really sure what it means by “what they represent” but I thinks it’s that there are 30 adult tickets and 45 children tickets )

c: so our points are (30,0) and (0,45) so you would graph that.
To find how many children tickets were bought if there were 20 adult tickets just look at the photo I put. I don’t know how to explain this.


Hope this helps

Find the indicated term of the given arithmetic sequence. a1=45, d= -3, n=10
klasskru [66]

In this sequence, we're given the first term, which is 45.

The difference between each term is -3, which means 3 will be subtracted in each term.

We're asked to find the value of the tenth term, and we can do so by using this formula:

a(n) = a(1) + d(n - 1)

Replace values.

a(10) = 45 + -3(9)

a(10) = 18

<h3>The value of the tenth term is 18.</h3>

Uma rede de supermercados fornece a seus clientes um cartão de crédito cuja identificação é formada por 3 letras distintas (dent
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The correct option is (A) 33,600.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

A supermarket chain provides its customers with a credit card whose identification is formed by 3 different letters (among 26), followed by 4 different digits. A given city will receive cards with L as the third letter, the last number is zero and the penultimate is 1. The total number of distinct cards offered by such supermarket chain for that city is A) 33600 B) 37800 C) 43200 D ) 58500 E) 67600

Solution:

The general format of the credit cards provided by a supermarket chain is as follows:

<u>X</u> <u>X</u> <u>X</u> <u>#</u> <u>#</u> <u>#</u> <u>#</u>

Here, <em>X</em> represents letters and # represents numbers.

All the three letters have to different and all the four numbers have to different, i.e. no repetition allowed.

It is provided that a given city will receive cards with L as the third letter, the last number is zero and the penultimate is 1.

Then the general format of this cities credit cards is as follows:

<u>X</u> <u>X</u> <u>L</u> <u>#</u> <u>#</u> <u>1</u> <u>0</u>

Now there are two spaces left for letters and 2 for numbers.

As there are no repetition allowed the two letter spaces can be filled by:

Number of ways to select 2 letters = 25 × 24 = 600

And the number of ways to select two numbers when there is no repetition allowed is:

Number of ways to select 2 numbers = 8 × 7 = 56

Compute the total number credit cards available at the supermarket as follows:

Total number credit cards = 600 × 56 = 33600

Thus, the total number of distinct cards offered by such supermarket chain for that city is 33,600.

The correct option is (A).
