Gina has 6 yards of ribbon. she cuts the ribbon into pieces that each measures three fourths yard. how many pieces of three fourths yard does gina have

Given

Gina has 6 yards of ribbon.

She cuts the ribbon into pieces that each measures three fourths yard.

Find out  how many pieces of three fourths yard does Gina have

To proof

let the number of pieces of the ribbon be x.

As given in the question

Gina has of ribbon = 6 yards

She cuts the ribbon into pieces that each measures three fourths yard

Than the equation becomes

solving the above equation

we get

x = 2 × 4

x = 8

Gina have 8 pieces of three fourths yard

Hence proved

a: inscribed angles

step-by-step explanation:

i reviewed this question with a peer and teacher, seems to be correct, me later

delaney would like to make a 5lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

she has several pounds of peanuts and several pounds of a mixture that is 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.

let 'p' represent the number of pounds of peanuts needed to make the new mixture, and  

let 'm' represent the number of pounds of the 80% almond-20% peanut mixture.

:

p + m = 5

therefore

m = (5-p)

write an equation based on the percent of peanuts

1p + .2m = .6(5)

replace m with (5-p)

p + .2(5-p) = .6(5)

p + 1 - .2p = 3

p - .2p = 3 - 1

.8p = 2

p = 2/.8

p = 2.5 lbs of peanuts required

then

5 - 2.5 = 2.5 lbs of the peanut/almond mixture required

:

a) what is the system that models this situation?

p + m = 5

1p + .2m = .6(5)
