Lets convert the fraction first to ease the calculations:
2 5/8 = 16/8 + 5/8 = 21/8
so now we can operate easily, to calculate we need to multiply 21/8 by 2/3 that is because, if 1/3 is used then 2/3 are left over (1/3 + 2/3 = 1, the total), so we have:
(2/3)(21/8) = (2*21)/(3*8)
= 42/24
= 21/12
= 7/4
so 7/4 are left over
Distances are considered to be non-negative in all cases.
The absolute value function is necessary to get a positive result when the difference of coordinate values is negative.
The square root function is defined to return a positive result always, so no absolute value function is required when the distance is found using the square root function.
Answer:
100-x
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps:)
17 = 3(4x - 5)
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
17 = 12x - 15
<em><u>Add 15 to both sides.</u></em>
32 = 12x
<em><u>Divide both sides by 12.</u></em>
x = 2.67. (This is your answer.)

Answer: 1145 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
The total feet of streamer that Shirley have to decorate with will be the addition of the total roll of blue streamer plus the total roll of green streamer. This will be:
= 5(93) + 8(85)
= 465 feet + 680 feet
= 1145 feets of streamer.
is 93 feet long and each roll of
