Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of one of the boards = 8 feet

Converting to inches

1\ \text{foot}=12\ \text{inches}\\\Rightarrow 8\ \text{feet}=8\times 12=96\ \text{inches}

One cut is 16 inches

So, we divide the length of the board by 16

\dfrac{96}{16}=6

So, one board is cut into 6 pieces.

The other board is also 8 feet long.

So, the number of pieces the other board is cut into is also 6.

Hence, a total of 6+6=12 pieces of each 16 inches long can be cut from the two boards.

Hi there! :)

Answer:

\huge\boxed{V = 359.01 mm^{3} }

Use the formula V = 1/3(bh) to solve for the volume of the cone where b = πr² where π ≈ 3.14:

Find the area of the base:

b = π(7)²

b = 49π

b = 153.86 mm²

Find the volume:

V = 1/3(153.86 · 7)

V = 1/3(1077.02)

V = 359.006 ≈ 359.01 mm³.

Solve 0= 2t^3-21t^2+ 40t
sukhopar [10]
0=2t^3-21^2+40t
switch sides
2t^3-21t^2+40t=0
solve factoring 
t(t-8)(2t-5)=0
using the zero factor principle
t=0

solve
t-8=0:t=8
solve
2t-5=0:t= \frac{5}{2}
t=0,t=8,t= \frac{5}{2}
Hope this helps

A jeweler who buys a ring from a jewelry maker for $125 marked with the price by 135% for sale in the store what is the selling
siniylev [52]
Marked up by 135% means
new price=original price+(original price times markup) =125+(125 times 1.35)=293.75
tax
293.75 times 0.075=22.03125

293.75-22.03125=271.718 so aprox $271.72


selling price would be $271.72
