Answer:

Jose stretched the taffy the farthest and Maria stretched it the least

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance stretched by George = 3 feet

Distance stretched by Jose is 1\dfrac{1}{3} times as much as George so

3\times 1\dfrac{1}{3}=3\times\dfrac{4}{3}=4\ \text{feet}

Distance stretched by Jose is 4\ \text{feet}

Maria streched the taffy \dfrac{2}{3} times as George

3\times \dfrac{2}{3}=2\ \text{feet}

Maria stretched the taffy by 2\ \text{feet}

Sally stretched it \dfrac{6}{6} so 1\ \text{feet}

So, Jose stretched the taffy the farthest and Maria stretched it the least.

5/4+x=3/4 how do I figure this out
Andreyy89

You could subtract 5/4 from each side of the equation.
Then it would say
                                 x = -2/4 .

That's a perfectly true solution, but not a very attractive one.
To pretty it up, you could simplify the fraction if you felt like it,
and you would have
                                   x = -1/2 .

A mountain in boone county is eroding and losing elevation at a rate of 5% every millennium. if the current elevation is 1,710 m
aliina [53]

Answer: 1,393 meters tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 1710 meters for the initial amount, 0.05 for the rate of decrease, and 4 millennia for the time elapsed.

y

= a(1–r)t

y

= 1,710(1–0.05)4 Plug in values

y

= 1,710(0.95)4 Subtract

y

= 1,710(0.81450…) Simplify

y

= 1,392.80568… Multiply

Round to the nearest whole number.

1,392.80568… → 1,393

To the nearest whole number, the mountain will be 1,393 meters tall.

PLEASE NEED HELP NOW WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST<br> What is the value of B?
Tresset [83]
So all the angles of triangle add up to 180 degrees. So you add up the the two other sides and subtract 180 by the answer.

61 + 58 = 119

180 - 119 = 61

So, you’re answer would be 61 degrees. Hope that helped :)
