Answer: she still has to cut off 19/16 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Olivia wants to cut 3 3/4 inches from a piece of string. Converting 3 3/4 inches to improper fraction, it becomes 15/4 inches.
She has already cut off 2 9/16 inches from the piece of string. Converting 2 9/16 inches to improper fraction, it becomes 41/16 inches.
Therefore, the length of string that is left for her to cut off would be
15/4 - 41/16 = (60 - 41)/16
= 19/16 inches
This is a right triangle. To find the length of the hypotenuse a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
21^2 + 18^2 = c^2
441 + 324 = c^2
765 = c^2

Do you mean subtract two each day? If so...
4x3=12 and 12 divided by 2 is 6 so it would take six days to reach zero
or
you could manually subtract two from 6 each days as in 12-2=10 (1 day), 10-2=8 (2 days), and so on...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
L = 3*w + 1 Given
P = 2*(L + w) Formula for Perimeter. Substitute for L
P = 2*(3w + 1 + w) Combine
P = 2*(4w + 1)
P = 58 Given
58 = 8w + 2 Remove the brackets
58 - 2 = 8w Subtract 2
56 = 8*w Divide by 8
56/8 = w
7 = w
================
Find L
L = 3*w + 1
L = 3*7 + 1
L = 22
================
Check
2L + 2W = 58
2*22 + 2*7 =? 58
44 + 14 = ? 58
58 = 58
The answer checks.
First number is a and second one is 2a+4
a(2a+4)=48
a(a+2)=24
a^2+2a-24=0
(a+6)(a-4)=0
the question says a is negative so a=-6 b=-8
