Answer:

By assuming that shortest feather has a length of 1/4 inches, the length of the longest feather is 2 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

A mathematical translation of the statement of the problem is:

x - y = \frac{7}{4}

Where x, y represent the lengths of the longest and shortest feathers, respectively. Let assume that length of the shortest feather is 1/4 inches. Then, the length of the longest feather is:

x = y + \frac{7}{4}

x = 2

By assuming that shortest feather has a length of 1/4 inches, the length of the longest feather is 2 inches.

[02.05] Marcie solved the following inequality, and her work is shown below: −2(x − 5) − 12 ≤ 4 + 6(x + 3) −2x + 10 − 12 ≤ 4 + 6
Nezavi [6.7K]
Hi there! Marcie made a mistake in the last step of the solving process.

Let's solve this problem step by step!
−2(x − 5) − 12 ≤ 4 + 6(x + 3)

First work out the parenthesis, which can for instance be done using rainbow method.

−2x + 10 − 12 ≤ 4 + 6x + 18
The parenthesis are worked out correctly. Remember that multiplying a negative by a negative gives you a positive.

Now we can collect the terms.
−2x − 2 ≤ 6x + 22

The terms are collected correctly.

Next up is subtracting 6x from both sides and adding 2 to both sides of the inequality.
−8x ≤ 24

This step is also correct.
Finally we must divide both sides of the inequality by -8 to find our answer. Be aware of the fact that the sign flips when dividing by a negative!

x ≤ −3
Mistake! Marcie forgot to flip the sign. Instead the answer should be x \geqslant - 3

~ Hope this helps you!

nswer:

209.8

Step-by-step explanation:

the bottom is = 11 * 5

two of the sides are 11 * 9.3 / 2    because they are triangles, and then times 2 because there are two of them

the other two sides are 10.5 * 5 / 2 , and the * 2 because there are two of them again.

(11 * 5) + (11 * 9.3 * 2 / 2) + (10.5 * 5 * 2 / 2) =209.8
