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:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
If you plug in 5 1/3 to the equation, the result is 6, meaning that the point lies on the line.
The answer probably would be this 5ab-5ac=d
First, convert 5 hours into minutes:
5 hours 60 min
------------ * --------------- = 300 min
1 1 hr
Next, find the unit rate in m/min:
9673.6 m
--------------- = 32.24 m/min
300 min
Now find the distance you can walk in 70 minutes at this rate:
32.24 m
------------- * 70 min = 2247 meters (answer)
1 min
You could walk 2247 meters (to the nearest meter) in 70 minutes.
