Answer:

44.125 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of picture = 32 1/2 inches

Length of wall = 120 3/4 inches

Hence, to center picture horizontally ;

Distance from the edge of the wall in which the picture should be placed :

(Length of wall - length of picture) / 2

(120 3/4 - 32 1/2) / 2

(483/4 - 65/2) / 2

Take the L. C. M of 4 and 2 = 4

((483 - 130) / 4) ÷ 2

(353 / 4) ÷ 2

(353 / 4) * (1 / 2)

= 353 / 8

= 44 1/8

= 44 1/8

= 44.125 inches

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154m.Its length is 2m more than twice its breadth. What are the length and bread
TiliK225 [7]

P = 154\\a = 2b + 2

a = ?; b = ?

P = 2(a + b) = 2(2b + 2 + b) = 2(3b + 2) = 6b + 4

154 = 6b + 4\\6b = 154 - 4\\6b = 150\\b = 150 : 6\\b = 25

a = 2b + 2 = 2 * 25 + 2 = 50 + 2 = 52

Answer: 25 and 52 m.

Solve the system of equations using the substitution method. 2x+8y=4 x=−3y+5
goldenfox [79]
Since x=-3y+5, substitute x for -3y+5. 

2(-3y+5)+8y=4

Distribute. 

-6y+10+8y= 4

2y+10= 4

Subtract 10 on both sides. 

2y=-6

Divide by 2.

y=-3

Plug in y=-3. 

x=-3(-3)+5
x= 9+5
x=14

(14,-3)

We can check this. 

2(14)+8(-3)=4
28-24=4
4=4 <== this works

I hope this helps!
