Eddie bought 27 2/5 inches of wire for a home improvement project. How many 12 inches sections can he make from it?

goblinko [34]

Simply divide your wire by 12 and cut off the excess (as it cannot make a full 12-inch section).

27 $\frac{2}{5}$ ÷12=2 $\frac{17}{60}$

So you have two 12-inch sections and an additional 3.4-inch section.

Twice the complement of angles A is 40 less than the supplement of angle A. Find the measure of angle A

Serggg [28]

Complement adds to 90
complement of A is 90-A

supplement is adds to 180
supplemetn of A is 180-A

2(90-A) is -40+180-A

2(90-A)=-40+180-A
2(90-A)=140-A
distribute
180-2A=140-A
add 2A to both sides
180=140+A
minus 140 both sides
40=A

A=40 degres
