this is because product is multiplcation and difference is subtraction. The multiplication of a subtraction problem is distribution
Answer: Mary
Mary is more trustworthy because she interviews more students, therefore has a more accurate range of answers.
1. Use a straightedge to draw line m and label a point on the line as point F
2. Construct a line perpendicular to line m through point F. Label a point on this line as point G.
3. With the compass open to the desired side length of the square, place the compass point on point F and draw an arc on line m and an arc on FG←→ . Label the points of intersection as points H and K.
4. Without changing the compass width, place the compass point on point H and draw an arc in the interior of ∠HFK.
5. Keeping the same compass width, place the compass on point K and draw an arc in the interior of ∠HFK to intersect the previously drawn arc. Label the point of intersection as point J.
6. Use the straightedge to draw JH¯¯¯¯¯ and JK¯¯¯¯¯.
Given
Gina has 6 yards of ribbon.
She cuts the ribbon into pieces that each measures three fourths yard.
Find out how many pieces of three fourths yard does Gina have
To proof
let the number of pieces of the ribbon be x.
As given in the question
Gina has of ribbon = 6 yards
She cuts the ribbon into pieces that each measures three fourths yard
Than the equation becomes
solving the above equation
we get
x = 2 × 4
x = 8
Gina have 8 pieces of three fourths yard
Hence proved
