Given: Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon  Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon. Nailah bought 5 pieces of ribbon. Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon.

To find: Who can buy which ribbon

Solution:

Ribbon Sizes

1 2/3 = 5/3  yard

4/5  yard

3 1/2  = 7/2 Yard

Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon

Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon

=> 3 * 5/3  = 5

  3 * 4/5  = 2.4

  3 * 7/2   = 10.5

Nailah  bought 5 pieces of ribbon

=> 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

   5 * 4/5  =  4

   5 * 7 /2   = 17.5

Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon

=> 6 * 5/3  = 10

  6 * 4/5  = 4.8

  6 * 7 /2   = 21

Only value between 7 & 9 is 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

hence Nailah only can buy 1 2/3 = 5/3  yard ribbon

or there is some mistake in the data

Write the phrase as an expression. Then evaluate when y=20.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Q=\frac{40}{y-16}

Q=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the quotient be represented by 'Q'.

Given:

The difference of a number 'y' and 16 is y-16

Quotient is the answer that we get on dividing two terms. Here, the first term is 40 and the second term is y-16. So, we divide both these terms to get an expression for 'Q'.

The quotient of 40 and y-16 is given as:

Q=\frac{40}{y-16}

Now, we need to find the quotient when y=20. Plug in 20 for 'y' in the above expression and evaluate the quotient 'Q'. This gives,

Q=\frac{40}{20-16}\\Q=\frac{40}{4}=10

Therefore, the quotient is 10, when the value of 'y' is 20.

A). They are supplementary angles meaning they add up to 180
So
B) (12x+8)+(3x+7)=180
12x+8+3x+7=180
15x+15=180
-15 -15
15x=165
15/15x=165/15
x=11

Angle 1 is
12x+8
12(11)+8
132+8
140
Therefore measure of angle 1 is 140°

Angle 2
3x+7
3(11)+7
33+7
40
Measure of angle 2 is 40°
