we are given
distance=6.7 furlongs
(a) In rods
we know that
we can multiply both sides by 6.7
..............Answer
(b) In chains
we know that
we can multiply both sides by 6.7
..............Answer
For this case we have the following expression:
(x + 7) / (x ^ 2 - x - 2) = A / (x - 2) + B / (x + 1)
Rewriting we have:
(x + 7) / ((x-2) (x + 1)) = A / (x - 2) + B / (x + 1)
We multiply the equality by (x-2) (x + 1):
x + 7 = A (x + 1) + B (x - 2)
Rewriting we have the following system of equations:
A + B = 1
A - 2B = 7
Solving the system we have:
A = 3
B = -2
Answer:
constants A and B are:
A = 3
B = -2
You could substract or divide It to get the sum.
Using proportions, it is found that the thickness of the icing between the layers, in inches, is of:
E 1 inch
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.
In this problem, there are six layers, each measuring 1.25 inches tall, hence the height of these layers is:
6 x 1.25 = 7.5 inches
Then the height of the icing between the layers is of:
13.5 - 7.5 = 6 inches
Six layers, hence each icing is of:
6/6 = 1 inch
