Since the dimensions of the length and width are equal, then the board and the picture are squares. The width of the board is the margin surrounding the picture. Let's denote the width to be x. The length of the picture plus the length of the width at both ends should equal the length of the board. So, the equation should be:
10 1/2 in = 8 3/4 + 2x
Solving for x
x = 7/8 inches
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Negative exponents on the top is equivalent to them being positive in the bottom.
Lets start with the chain of 3's:
18 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3
But, we know that
3 + 3 = 2 + 2 + 2
Sol, let's replace 3 + 3 by 2 + 2 + 2 one by one.
Hence, the possible ways of combinations are listed below:
18 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 (1)
18 = 3 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 (2)
Therefore, there are two combinations of 2- and 3- point shots that could total 18 points.
-3x + 4 > 5
-3x > 5 - 4
-3x > 1
x < 1/-3
x < -1/3
