Answer:   6\dfrac{3}{8}\text{ inches}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Original length = 15\dfrac{1}{8} inches

=\dfrac{8\times15+1}{8}=\dfrac{121}{8} inches                      ( In improper fraction )

Length of piece cut from original = 8\dfrac{3}{4} inches

=\dfrac{4\times8+3}{4}= \dfrac{35}{4} inches                 ( In improper fraction )

Length of piece leftover piece =  (Original length ) - (Length of piece cut )

=\dfrac{121}{8}-\dfrac{35}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{121-2\times35}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{121-70}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{51}{8}\\\\=6\dfrac{3}{8}\text{ inches}

Hence, the leftover piece will be 6\dfrac{3}{8}\text{ inches}  long.

I WILL GIVE 20 POINTS TO THOSE WHO ANSWER THIS QUESTION RIGHT NOOOO SCAMS AND EXPLAIN WHY THAT IS THE ANSWER
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

480 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rhombus is pq/2, where p and q are the diagonals. In the picture, half of a diagonal is 10 (which I am assuming 10 does not represent the whole diagonal), so all of the horizontal diagonal is 20.

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem to this, we get 10^2 + x^2 = 26^2. After simplifying, this becomes 100 + x^2 = 676, and therefore x = 24. Multiply this by 2 to get the full vertical diagonal, the area is simply 48*20/2 which is 480 inches squared.

Mark spend 1 hour 10 minutes in reading.

<h3>What is Unitary Method?</h3>

Unitary method is a process by which we find the value of a single unit from the value of multiple units and the value of multiple units from the value of a single unit.

Mark spent 1 hour 17 minutes less than Sheila

Sheila spent 55 minutes less than Pete.

Pete spent 3 hours reading.

Since, pete spent 3 hours. So, Sheila spent

= 3 hours or (180 minutes) - 55 minutes

= 2 hours 05 minutes.

Now, Mark spent = 2 hrs 05 minutes - 55 minutes  

                            = 1 hour 10 minutes
