Answer:

1.28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

48/30 = x/.8

cross multiply

30x = 48(.8)

30x = 38.4

x = 38.4/30

x = 1.28 m

Write an inequality for people younger than 8 get in for $45

Tema [17]

Answer:

8 ≤ $45

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

People younger than 8 get in for $45.

Now we can assume that the cost given might be to enter in the garden or might be in fair or might be at museum or might be at a zoo which is $45 for people which are younger than 8.

Now we can say for people younger than 8 means people or children who are of 8 years or who are below 8 years or say less than 8 years.

Hence we can say people who are less than or equal to 8 get in for $45

So the inequality equation becomes.

8 ≤ $45

Your question is missing the figure, so the figure for your question is attached below:

Answer:

shade 2 strips out of 4 to get fraction strip equivalent to Mandy's fraction strip

Step-by-step explanation:

As Mandy shaded the 3 trips out of the total six strips. It shows the fraction of $\frac{3}{6}$

and $\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

To shade the given fraction strip so that it represents a fraction that is equivalent to Mandy's fraction strip, we should shade 2 stripes out of 4 that is equivalent to $\frac{1}{2}$

i.e. $\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

My Fraction Strip is equivalent to Mandy's Fraction Strip because both are equal to $\frac{1}{2}$
