Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Wire is 4 1/2 feet, or 4.5 feet.
Each smaller wire needs to be 1 1/4 feet, or 1.25 feet.
<em>How many whole 1.25 feet wire can we have from total of 4.5 feet wire?</em>
<em />
Let's divide:
\
<em>thus we can have 3 whole "1.25 feet long" wire and fractional amount.</em>
<em />
<em>Hence, maximum number of smaller pieces is 3</em>
C. 8 inches. I hope I'm not too late
4 yards and 2 feet is equal 14 feet since each yard is made up of 3 feet.
1 yard = 3 feet.
So if we take 14 feet and multiply that by 3 we get 42 feet.
42/3 is equal to about 14 yards in total
So the answer is 14 yards.
I think it is C.Skewed right.
Answer:
252 children and 395 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a linear system of equations, where x represents the number of children and y represents the number of adults
x+y=648
1.50x+2.25y=1269
solve using substitution, so y=648-x,
then substitute this into the second equation, so you get 1.50x+2.25(648-x)=1269,
solve for x and you will get x equals the 252
then substitute this into the first equation, so you get 252+y=648
solve and you will get y=395
