Answer:

2 1/6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A carpenter has a board that is 8 feet long. He cuts off two pieces. One piece is 3 1/2 feet long and the other is 2 1/3 feet long. How much of the board is left?

Total length of the board = 8 feet

Piece A = 3 1/2 feet

Piece B = 2 1/3 feet

Piece A + piece B

= 3 1/2 feet + 2 1/3 feet

= 7/2 + 7/3

= (21+14) / 6

= 35/6

= 5 5/6 feet

Length of the board remaining = Total length of the board - length of the two pieces

= 8 feet - 35/6 feet

= (48-35) / 6

= 13/6 feet

= 2 1/6 feet

Length of the board remaining = 2 1/6 feet

-8=-(x+4). Please help I don't know the answer or steps to solve this equation.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First u need to distribute the -1 to (x + 4), creating the equation, -8 = -x - 4. Then add the -4 to both sides, and you get, -4 = -x. Then divide by -1 to both sides, and x = 4.

Answer:

We conclude that

  • The angle ∠1 = x = 36°
  • The angle ∠2 = 4x = 4(36°) = 144°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

<1 and <2 form a linear pair

m∠1 = 4m∠2

To determine

Find the measure of each of the two angles.

<u>Important Points about linear pair:</u>

  • We know that when two lines meet or intersect, we get a linear pair of angles.
  • Linear pairs are basically two adjacent angles that form a line.
  • The measure of two adjacent angles forming a straight line is 180, meaning they are supplementary.

As

<1 and <2 form a linear pair

m∠1 = 4m∠2

In other words, angle 1 is 4 times the measure of angle ∠2.

Let the angle ∠1 be = x

As the angle 1 is 4 times the measure of angle ∠2, so

The angle 2 will be = 4x

As <1 and <2 forms a linear pair, thus the measure of the sum of <1 and <2 will be 180°, so

x + 4x = 180

5x = 180

divide both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5}\:=\:\frac{180}{5}

\:x=36^{\circ }

Thus, we conclude that

  • The angle ∠1 = x = 36°
  • The angle ∠2 = 4x = 4(36°) = 144°
