Answer:

greatest number of pieces will be 9 that he can use.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamar has a piece of wood, 8 foot long.

He wants to build a step stool for his tree house by cutting the pieces of the wood \frac{5}{6} foot long each.

Number of pieces of the wood = \frac{\text{length of wood}}{\text{length of each piece}}

= \frac{8}{\frac{5}{6}}

= 8\times \frac{6}{5}

= \frac{48}{5}

= 9\frac{3}{5}

Number of pieces will be 9 full pieces and a fraction of piece.

Therefore, greatest number of pieces will be 9 which Jamar can use.

The greates amount of pieces he would be able to use would be 9 because 8 divided by 5/6= 9 and 3/5.the 3/5 piece is too short.

SOMEOME HELP this is my third time posting those SERIOUSLY HELP ME PLEASE
Hoochie [10]

The correct answer is C (7, 9)

Firstly we know that each point is 6 away from the other in terms of x and in terms of y. Now we also know that for every 6, we will be one away from point B and five away from point A. We know this because the ratio is AB 5:1, meaning that the 5 is on the A side (they both come first).

So, we can just add 5 to each of the A value numbers to get point P.

A = (2, 4)

P = (2+5, 4+5)

P = (7, 9)

A triangle has two sides that measure 4ft and 3ft. Which could be the measure of the third side?
Nezavi [6.7K]
The measure of the third side must be less than the sum of the other two. That property is valid for all triangles.

For this question, call x the measure of the third side. So you must have

x < 4 + 3

x < 7 ft

The only option that satisfies the condition above is

option A) 5 ft.

I hope this helps. =)
