He would have 9/12 yards left over because you have to create a common denominator which would be 12. so for 5/6 you would multiply by 2 so you have 10/12. 1/4 you have to multiply by 3 so you get 3/12. and 2/3 you have to multiply by 4 so you get 8/12. then you add them 10/12+3/12+8/12 = 21/12 which simplifies to 1 9/12 and because he used 1 yard he is left with 9/12.
final answer: 9/12 yards

The work in an office takes 150 hours to complete every week. Each person in the office works 32hours a week. What is the smalle
tatiyna

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this, we must figure out the minimum amount we can add 32 to itself to reach 150. This means that we must multiply 32 by our desired amount, x, to reach the amount of hours closest to 150 (but above/equal to it). To find x, we can divide 150 by 32, and if it gives us a number with no decimals or remainders, that is x, as it is the smallest amount of people to get above/equal to 150. If it gives us a remainder/decimal, we must round up, as we cannot have a part of a person and we must get the work done, so we must get at least 150 hours. 150/32 is 4.6 something, so we must round up. 5 is our answer

Solve each system of equation<br> Y=-3x+5 <br> 5x-4y=-3
____ [38]
Y = -3x + 5
5x - 4y = -3

   5x - 4(-3x + 5) = -3
5x + 4(3x) - 4(5) = -3
     5x + 12x - 20 = -3
             17x - 20 = -3
                   + 20  + 20
                    17x = 17
                     17     17
                        x = 1
                        y = -3x + 5
                        y = -3(1) + 5
                        y = -3 + 5
                        y = 2
                  (x, y) = (1, 2)

Explain why the function is discontinuous at the given number
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

  left limit = 2 ≠ 1/2 = right limit

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is discontinuous if the limit of the function value approaching the point from the left is different than the limit approaching from the right.

Here, the left limit is 2 and the right limit is 1/2. The limits are different, which is why the function is discontinuous at x=-1.
