Convert feet to inches
100ft=12*100 =1200 inches

convert 24 and 3/8 to improper fraction
24 and 3/8=24+3/8=192/8+3/8=195/8
195/8 times number of pieces=1200
times bothsides by 8/195 to clear fraction (195/8 times 8/195=1560/1560=1)
number of pieces=9600/195
number of pieces=49.23someting
she can cut 49 complete pieces and 1 partial piece

she can cut 50 pieces but 1 of them is shorter than 24 and 3/8 and therefor doesn't count

she cut 49 pieces

Multiply the sum of -13/8 and 5/12 by their difference.​
REY [17]

Answer:

1421/576

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum = - 13/8 + 5/12 = - 39/24 + 10/24 = - 29/24

Difference = - 13/8 - 5/12 = - 39/24 - 10/24 = - 49/24

Sum * Difference = (-29/24)*(-49/24) = 1421/576

Bakery has bought 250 pounds of muffin dough. They want to make waffles or muffins in half-dozen packs out of it. Half a dozen o
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

250 batches of muffins and 0 waffles.

Step-by-step explanation:

-1

If we denote the number of batches of muffins as "a" and the number of batches of waffles as "b," we are then supposed to maximize the profit function

P = 2a + 1.5b

subject to the following constraints: a>=0, b>=0, a + (3/4)b <= 250, and 3a + 6b <= 1200. The third constraint can be rewritten as 4a + 3b <= 1000.

Use the simplex method on these coefficients, and you should find the maximum profit to be $500 when a = 250 and b = 0. So, make 250 batches of muffins, no waffles.

You use up all the dough, have 450 minutes left, and have $500 profit, the maximum amount.
