<h3>Answer:  3/4</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

We'll use this formula

a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c

to convert from a mixed number to an improper fraction.

John's mixed number converts to

a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c

6 & 3/4 = (6*4 + 3)/4

6 & 3/4 = 27/4

Do the same for Kerry's string

a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c

7 & 1/2 = (7*2 + 1)/2

7 & 1/2 = 15/2

We'll subtract those results to find the difference between them.

15/2 - 27/4 = 30/4 - 27/4 = (30-27)/4 = 3/4 is the final answer

Kerry's string is 3/4 of an inch longer compared to John's string.

Answer:

¾

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of Kerry string = 7(½) = 15/2

Length of John string = 6(¾) = 27/4

15/2 - 27/4

30 - 27/4

3/4

Which of the following is(are) the solution(s) to |5x+2|=8 ?
slega [8]

Answer:

x = 6/5 or x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve:

|5x+2|=8

We know that |u|=a the u = a and u = -a

Now solving:

|5x+2|=8

5x +2 = 8 or 5x +2 = -8

5x = 8-2 or 5x = -8-2

5x = 6 or 5x = -10

x = 6/5 or x = -10/5

x = 6/5 or x = -2

So, x = 6/5 or x = -2

A high school has 44 players on the football team. The summary of the players' weights is given in the box plot. Approximately,
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing image is attached below.

From the given information

The number of players is 44.

From the box plot;

The minimum weight = 154 pounds

The first quartile Q₁ = 159 which is 25% of the data below 159 pounds.

The second quartile Q₂ = 213 which is 50% of the data below 213 pounds

The third quartile Q₃ = 253 which is 75% of the data below 253 pounds

The maximum weight = 268 pounds.

Here, the value of 213 is the middle value and which signifies the median.

The 50% of the data are located both on the left side and the right side of the median.

Thus, the percentage of players weighting greater than or equal to 213 pounds is 50%.
