Think of this as a proportion: 2.4 is to 100, as 34 is to L ("L" for "Long piece.")

Cross multiply to get 2.4 L = 3400, then divide both sides by 2.4 to be left with

L = 3400/2.4, so

L = 1416.666...

So the longer piece of wood is 1,416.66... inches long.

Hope this helps!!:)

Find the surface area of this rectangular prism. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.
Lena [83]

Answer: 258 yard^{2}

Step-by-step explanation: To find the surface area you add the area of all the sides. And the unit for a surface area is unit (yards) squared.

Front: 5 • 9 = 45

Back: 5 • 9 = 45

Left: 6 • 5 = 30

Right: 6 • 5 = 30

Top: 9 • 6 = 54

Bottom: 9 • 6 = 54

45 + 45 + 30 + 30 + 54 + 54 = <u>258</u>.

Barbara buys 3 boxes of eggs costing £1.20 each 1 jar of mayonnaise costing £1.80 2 loaves of breadshe pays £10 note and gets £1
Serjik [45]

The cost of a box of eggs = $1.20

So, the cost of 3 boxes of eggs = 3 \times $1.20 = $3.6

The cost of each jar of mayonnaise = $1.80

Let the cost of each loaf of bread = $'x'

So, the cost of 2 loaves of bread = 2 \times x = $2x

Since, Barbara gives $10 note and receives a change of $1.60.

Therefore, she pays 10 - 1.60 = $8.4 for the given items.

Therefore, 3.6+1.8+2x = 8.4

5.4+2x = 8.4

2x = 8.4-5.4

2x = 3.0

So, x = 1.5

Therefore, the cost of each loaf of bread is $1.50 not $1.40.
