Answer: 0.4 >-8 /9(8+7)
Sorry if it isn't correct!!
Well if there is 28 feet, that would be (12x28) 336 inches, and 16 inches between the plug and the first light, there would be only 320 inches left for lights. therefore, if there are 4 inches between each light, we divide 320 by 4. the answer we get is 80. there are 80 lights.
Let's compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges: convert each given proper fraction into its decimal counterpart:
3 63/80 => 3 .788 approx.
3 1/5 => 3.2
3 11/20 => 3.55
It's now an easy matter to arrange these numbers from least to greatest:
3.2, 3.55, 3.79, or
3 1/5, 3 11/20, 3 63/80
Answer:
They are taking 12 2 credit courses
The are taking 4 1 credit courses
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 1 credit courses
y = 2 credit courses
The number of courses is 16
x+y = 16
The number of credits is 28 so multiply the course by the number of credits
1x+2y=28
Subtract the first equation from the second equation
x+2y =28
-x-y=-16
-----------------
y = 12
They are taking 12 2 credit courses
We still need to find the 1 credit courses
x+y = 16
x+12= 16
Subtract 12 from each side
x-12-12 = 16-12
x =4
The are taking 4 1 credit courses
