Each strip is 29 cm
------------------------------------------------------
Change the m to cm
------------------------------------------------------
6 m = 600 cm
------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of strips for 1 6m-board
------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of strips that can be cut from the 6m board.
600 ÷ 29 = 20 pieces remainder 20cm
So we can only cut 20 pieces of 29 strips from one 6m board.
------------------------------------------------------
Find number of boards needed
------------------------------------------------------
70 ÷ 20 = 3.5
We need 3.5 of the 6m boards.
Since she can't have half a board, she has to buy 4 pieces of the board.
------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 4 pieces of the 6m board.
------------------------------------------------------
Percentage decrease = d
h1 = 2950
h2 = 2550
d/100 = (h2-h1)/h1
d/100 = (2950-2550)/2950
d=13.56
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
5-x+6=-2
X=13
3(x+5)=39
3 * x + 3 * 5 = 39
3x + 15 = 39
3x = 39 - 15
3x= 24
x = 8
Answer: k = -5
explanation-
distribute: -3k + -21 - 5k + 4= 23
combine: -8k -17 = 23
add 17 to both sides: -8k = 40
divide both sides by -8: k=-5
