Answer:

4 feet and 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a high number of inches to feet you divide it by 12 since 12 inches makes 1 foot.

So 56÷12 = 4 reminder 8

The remainder we keep it as inches

So our answer is 4 feet and 8 inches.

Answer:

The cost of each cotton candy bag is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let, the vendor has $x$ dollar at the starting of each day.

Let, the cost of each cotton candy bag is $y$ .

Now when she sells a total of 12 bags, she has $128.

$x+12y=128$ .....(1)

After she sells a total of 20 bags, she has $160.

$x+20y=160$ ....(2)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2.

$(x+20y)-(x+12y)=160-128$

$8y=32$

$y=4$

Hence, the cost of each cotton candy bag is $4.

Answer:

28 short race volunteers

76 long race volunteers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Short races = a

Long races = b

LAST YEAR:

7a + 8b = 804 - - - - (1)

THIS YEAR:

11a + 5b = 688 - - - (2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 8

35a + 40b = 4020

88a + 40b = 5504

Subtract

-53a = - 1484

a = 1484 / 53

a = 28

Put a = 28 in equation (1)

7(28) + 8b = 804

196 + 8b = 804

8b = 804 - 196

8b = 608

b = 76
