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

Option 1. ∠KRC and ∠CRH

Refer the figure .

These angles does not satisfy the definition of vertical angles . since these angles are not opposite.

Option 2. ∠KRE and ∠ERT

These angles does not satisfy the definition of vertical angles . since these angles are not opposite.

Option 3. ∠MRC and ∠KRM

These angles does not satisfy the definition of vertical angles . since these angles are not opposite.

Option 4.∠ERT and ∠MRC

MT and EC are the two lines that cross each other at vertex R ,

Thus ∠ERT and ∠MRC are opposite to each other .

Hence ∠ERT and ∠MRC are pair of vertcal angles .

kiruha [24]

Answer:

\frac{1}{4} of the books in the book store are mystery fiction books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent all the books in the books store.

Then, the fraction of books that are fiction books is \frac{3}{4}x

We have that; \frac{1}{3} of the fiction books are mystery books.

The fraction of the books at the  bookstore that are mystery fiction  books is \frac{1}{3}\times \frac{3}{4}x=\frac{1}{4}x.

Therefore \frac{1}{4} of the books in the bookstore are mystery fiction books.

(c) One lorry travels from your town to another town. The lorry reaches a top speed
Katen [24]

Answer:

The average speed is 24 km/h less than the top speed of the lorry.

Step-by-step explanation:

The top speed of the lorry is the highest speed reached during transit, while its average speed is the mean speed attained

Given:.

Top speed of the lorry = 90 km/h

Average speed of the lorry = 66 km/h

Then,

The difference between the speed reached = top speed - average speed

                                            = 90 - 66

                                            = 24 km/h

Therefore, the average speed is 24 km/h less than the top speed of the lorry.
