Answer:
8 or -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute value of n means that if n is a negative number, |-n| = n, so both 8 or -8 could be true here.
Answer:
feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The total change is the sum of the length of two boards she cut.
First board length is 1 7/8th feet. Let's change to improper fraction:
1 7/8 = 15/8 feet
Second board lengrh is 3.5 feet, or 3 1/2 feet. Let's change to improper fraction:
3 1/2 = 7/2 feet
Let's add the two:
The change in original board is 43/8 feet
Answer:
27.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a ratio that represents the problem:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
Substitute with the dimensions of the 34 foot pole and its 30 foot shadow.
34 : 30
Find the unit rate:
The unit rate is when one number in a ratio is 1.
Let's make the Shadow equal to one by dividing by 30 on both sides.
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
34 : 30
/30 /30
1.13 : 1
Now, let's multiply by 24 on both sides to find the height of the tree.
Multiply:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
1.13 : 1
x24 x24
27.2 : 24
Therefore, the tree is 27.2 feet tall.
Multiply 12 by 37%.
12 × 0.37 = 4.44
B) at least 4
It could also be c... 4.44 is less than 8. But B is the closest answer to 4.44.
