Problem 2
Plot point L anywhere that isn't on segment JK. Draw a line through point L. I find it helps to make the lines parallel.
Next, use a compass to measure the width of segment JK. Keeping this same width, transfer the nonpencil end of the compass to point L. Draw an arc that crosses the line through L.
Mark this intersection point M. Lastly, use a pen or marker to form segment LM and erase everything else of that line.
======================================================
Problem 3
The ideas of the previous problem will be used here. We copied segment JK to form congruent segment LM. So JK = LM.
The same steps will be used to form segment GN where GN = EF. In other words, segment GN is a perfect copy of segment EF.
If you repeat these steps again, you'll get another segment of the same length. This segment goes from point N to point H. So NH = GN = EF
Then we can say,
GH = GN + NH
GH = EF + EF
GH = 2*EF
14 + 5(x+3)-7
14 + 5x +15 -7
5x + 22
.75 is the answer because it looks like division
Answer:
Divide, 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, lets look at the unit scale.
For every 16 ounces, there are 1 pound.
To convert ounces to pounds, the number must be divide by 16, since there are 16 ounces in one pound.
The first fill in box answer is division.
Next we must ifnd the actual amount of pounds.
We know that the box weights 96 ounces.
Now lets divide this by ounces per pound, and see what we get:
96/16
=
6
So the box weighs 6 pounds.
This is the answer to the second fill in question.
Hope this helps!
