Answer:

4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that there are few numbers of friends.

Therefore, 28 inches of one sandwich has to be divided into equal few pieces and another 36 inches of the sandwich has to be divided into equal few pieces.

We have to calculate the greatest possible length of the pieces.

Therefore, the greatest length of each piece will be a common factor of 28 and 36.  

Now, we have 28 =2×2×7 and 36 =2×2×3×3. Hence, the greatest possible factor is 2×2 = 4.

Therefore, greatest possible length of each piece of the sandwich is 4 inches. (Answer)

Let x be a positive integer. If (-3)ºx (-3)* = (-3)14,<br> what is x?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

-3^{\circ \:}x\left(-3\right)=\left(-3\right)\cdot \:14 : x = \frac{840}{180^{\circ \:}}

Decimal Form:

x = -267.38030...

Step-by-step explanation:

-3^{\circ \:}x\left(-3\right)=\left(-3\right)\cdot \:14

Remove Parentheses: (-a) = -a

-3^{\circ \:}x\left(-3\right)=-3\cdot \:14

Multiply the numbers: 3 * 14  = 42

-3^{\circ \:}x\left(-3\right)=-42

Divide both sides by: -3^{\circ \:}\left(-3\right)

\frac{-3^{\circ \:}x\left(-3\right)}{-3^{\circ \:}\left(-3\right)}=\frac{-42}{-3^{\circ \:}\left(-3\right)}

Simplify:

x=-\frac{840}{180^{\circ \:}}

Hope I helped. If so, may I get brainliest and a thanks?

Thank you, have a good day! =)

Anyone can help me? Ive not done this..
kow [346]

Answer:

∠CED = 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

By adding all angles together, they’ll eventually equal ∠AED. Hence, sum of all given angles = ∠AED

∠AEB + ∠BEC + ∠CED = ∠AED

29°+12°+x = 89°

Solve for x and we will get measure of ∠CED:

41°+x = 89°

x = 89°-41°

x = 48°

Therefore, the measure of ∠CED is 48°
