Total one winter week snow fall = 15 1/2 inches .

On Monday it's =  2 3/4 inches.

On Tuesday = 1 1/2 times of 2 3/4 inches = 3/2 × 11/4 = 33/8 = 4 1/8 inches.

On Wednesday = 7/8 inches.

<em>Total snow fall on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday = 2 3/4 inches + 4 1/8 inches +  7/8 inches </em>

= 6 + 3/4 + 1/8 +7/8 = 6 + 6/8 + 1/8 +7/8

= 6 + 14/8 = 6 + 1  6/8 = 7 6/8 or 7 3/4 inches.

<em>In rest of the week the snow fall is = 15 1/2 inches - 7 3/4 inches.</em>

8 inches + (1/2 - 3/4 ) = 8 inches + (2/4 - 3/4 )

8  - 1/4 = 8/1 -1/4

= 32/4 - 1/4

= 31 /4

= 7 3/4 inches.

<h3>Therefore, the town got 7 3/4 inches  snow fall the rest of the week.</h3>

What is the surface area
anygoal [31]
Bear in mind that the area of a "parallelogram" is base * height.

notice the picture, the front and back parallelograms, have an altitude/height of 3 cm, and  a base of 8 cm, so the area of one of those two is 3*8.

as far as the left and right parallelograms, they have a base of 7 cm, but the altitude is also 3 cm, so the area of one of those is 3 *7.

bear in mind the altitude/height is the distance from the base to the top, and in this case is just 3 cm.

anyway, you have 4 parallelograms, get the area of each, add them up, and that's the surface area of the figure.

2(3*8) + 2(3*7).

Solve the equation -9v-9=-27 for v.
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

v=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-9v-9=-27

add nine to both sides

-9v-9+9=-27+9

simplify

-9v=-18

divide both sides by -9

-9v/-9   -18/-9

simplify y=2
