You would set up a proportion. 3/8 = 6/x... cross multiply ( 3*x = 3x and 6*8 = 48) 3x = 48... divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 = x and 48/3 = 16)
So, she originally had 16 feet of ribbon.
Answer:
Infinitely many solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the equation −2y + 2y + 3 = 3 we see only one variable, and that variable is of the first power. Ordinarily, we'd say that this equation will have 1 solution. However, if we combine like terms, we get 0 + 3 = 3, or 0 = 0, which is true for any and all y values. Infinitely many solutions.
Answer:
5.83 = CD
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the pythagorean theorem to solve
The legs are the x and y distances
x = (1- -4) = 5 units and y = 3 units
a^2+ b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 3^2 = c^2
25+9 = c^2
34 = c^2
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(34) = c which is the distance from C to D
5.830951895 = CD
5.83 = CD
