just like the previous one, we sum the sides to get the perimeter.

First turn 1/2 to 2/4 so you have a common denominator.
Next turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions:
11 3/4 --> 47/4 and 8 2/4 --> 34/4
Subtract:
47/4 - 34/4 = 13/4
Divide:
13/4 = 3.25
3.25/2 --> 1.625 or 1 5/8
Therefore, he will have to place it 1 5/8 feet from each side
Hope this helps!
Answer:
6. 1.01 x -10^5
7. 6 x -10^14
8. 550,000
9. 60,700,000
10. 0.000204
11. 0.0004
12. 7,000,000,000,000 > 3,500,000,000
7,000,000,000,000 (or 7 x 10^12) is greater by 2,000 times
15. 10^3 and 10^4
7,613 ,7,361,7,136
hope that helped
Since the traversal intersects two parallel lines, the corresponding angles are congruent. Set both expressions equal to each other and you get x=6
