Answer is x = 12 :)

Operations you're supposed to do in order to solve this equation are:

1. Combine like terms

2. Subtract 12 from both sides

3. Simplify

4. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

5. Simplify.

A carpenter has two lengths of wood; one is 108cm long and the other is 72cm long. He wants to cut them up to produce smaller pi
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

36 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you must find the Greatest common factor.

2. List the prime factor of 108 and 72:

108:(2)(2)(3)(3)(3)=(2^{2})(3^{3})\\ 72:(2)(2)(2)(3)(3)=(2^{3})(3^{2})

3. Now, you must choose the common prime numbers with the lowest exponents and multiply them:

(2^{2})(3^{2})=(4)(9)=36

Choose the ratio that you would use to convert 1.5 feet to miles. Remember
AleksandrR [38]

Answer: B, 1 mile / 5280 ft.

Step-by-step explanation: If you need to convert feet to miles the unit multiplier (ratio) that you use should have miles on top and feet on the bottom so that the feet cancel when you multiply, leaving miles as the unit. B is the only answer that has miles on top and feet on the bottom as well as the correct amounts (1 mile and 5280 ft).

The pizza has an area of 78.5 in². What is the minimum width of a placemat that can be placed underneath it so that the pizza do
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

<h2>   10 in</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of flat shapes, circles and square.

we know that the pizza has a  circular profile

and the place-mat has a square profile.

Step one:

let us solve for the radius of the pizza

area-of- pizzza= \pi r^2\\\\  78.5= 3.142*r^2\\\\r^2= 78.5/3.142\\\\r^2= 24.98\\\\r= \sqrt{24.98} \\\\r=4.998\\\\r= 5 in

Step two:

from inspection we know that the width of the place-mat is same as the diameter of the pizza

hence diameter of pizza

= 2r

=2*5

=10 in
