Answer:

3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract Jimmys string length from Sam's string length

7 1/2 - 6 3/4

Get a common denominator of 4

7 1/2*2/2 - 6 3/4

7 2/4 - 6 3/4

Borrow 1 ( or 4/4) from the 7

6 4/4 + 2/4 - 6 3/4

6 6/4 - 6 3/4

3/4

Answer:

Hello, There! My Name is Rocky <3 I'm here to help! :D

The Correct Answer is 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting our equation with parts separated

= 7 + 1/2 - 6 -  3/4

Solving the whole number parts

7− 6 =1

Solving the fraction parts

1/2 −3/ 4=?

Find the LCD of 1/2 and 3/4 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 4

2/4−3/4=−14

Combining the whole and fraction parts

1−1/4=3/4

Write one pair of brackets in this calculation so that the answer is correct. 5 + 2 × 7 – 4 = 11
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

5+2*(7-4) =11

Step-by-step explanation:

This expression was kind of trial and error for me seeing as I'm not really good at logic, but this is pretty basic. There are three possible places the parentheses can be placed (assuming each pair holds 2 terms);

(5+2)*7-4\\5+(2*7)-4\\5+2*(7-4)

The answer to the first expression would be 45, which is not equal to 11.

The answer to the second expression would be 15, which is also not equal to 11.

The answer to the last expression is 11, so that is the correct answer.

Hope this helped :D

Is 7, 20, 25 a right triangle?
love history [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

To answer if they are right triangles or not use the Pythagorean theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square of the legs.

a)    25² = 20² + 7²

      625 = 400 + 49

     625 ≠ 449              It is not a right triangle

b)   26² = 24² + 10²

      676 = 576 + 100

      676 = 676               it is a right triangle

c)   13² = 8² + (√10)²

     169 = 64 + 10

      169 ≠ 74                 it is not a right triangle

d)   52² = 48² + 20²

      2704 = 2304 + 400

      2704 = 2704               it is a right triangle

6-√8 divide √2-1
agasfer [191]

Answer:

4\sqrt{2}  +2

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{6-\sqrt{8}}{\sqrt{2}-1}

=\frac{6-\sqrt{8}}{\sqrt{2}-1} ×\frac{\sqrt{2}+1}{\sqrt{2}+1}

=\frac{(6-\sqrt{8})(\sqrt{2}+1)}{2-1}

=6\sqrt{2} + 6 -\sqrt{8}\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{8}

=6\sqrt{2} + 6 - 4 - \sqrt{8}

=6\sqrt{2} + 2 - \sqrt{8}

=6\sqrt{2} + 2 - 2

=4\sqrt{2}  +2

for \sqrt{8} = 2\sqrt{2} ,

\sqrt{8} = \sqrt{2*2*2}

     = (\sqrt{2})^2 × \sqrt{2}

     =2 ×\sqrt{2}
