Answer: 5\frac{5}{12}\ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The height of the wall under the window = 2\frac{2}{3}=\frac{8}{3}\ feet

The height of the window =2\frac{3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}\ feet

Now, the combined height from the floor to the window's top =\frac{8}{3}+\frac{11}{4}=\frac{32+33}{12}=\frac{65}{12}=5\frac{5}{12}\ feet

Thus, the drapes need to be 5\frac{5}{12}\ feet.

The total of 2 2/3 and 2 3/4 amounts to 5 5/12, indicating that the drapes must be 5 5/12 feet in length (equivalent to 5 feet 5 inches).

A law firm is going to designate associates and partners to a big new case. The daily rate charged to the client for each associ
babunello [3666]

Response:

Each associate incurs a cost of $700 daily for the client, meaning that 'a' associates will cost the client 700a dollars each day. For each partner, the charge is $1500 daily, so 'p' partners will accumulate a cost of 1500p dollars daily. The cumulative bill amounts to 700a + 1500p = $14100:

700a + 1500p = 14100

700a + 1500p = 14100

Given that there are a total of 11 lawyers assigned (associates and partners), the equation a + p must equal 11.

a + p = 11

a + p = 11

A salesperson has to drive 500 miles. For the first three hours she drove at 65 mi/h. For the next two hours she drove at 55 mil
AnnZ [3900]
       Short answer: 195
First, you multiply 65 by 3, yielding 195 miles.
Then, multiplying 55 by 2 gives you 110 miles.

By summing both distances, you arrive at 305.
From 500, if you subtract 305, you find =195.

Line GH contains points G(–2, 6) and H(5, –3). What is the slope of ?
PIT_PIT [3949]

We apply the slope formula by substituting the given points.

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Here, x2 equals 5 and x1 equals -2; y2 equals -3 and y1 equals 6.

m=\frac{-3-6}{5-(-2)}=\frac{-9}{7}

Thus, the line's slope is -9 divided by 7.

Minato drove 390 miles. Part of the drive was along local roads, where his average speed was 20 mph, and the rest was along a hi
lawyer [4039]

Answer:

45 millas.

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que la:

Distancia total recorrida = 390 millas

Tiempo total = 8 horas

Designando la distancia recorrida por la vía local como L

y la distancia recorrida por la carretera como H

Por la vía local,

La Velocidad = distancia/ tiempo

20 = L / T

T = L /20.... (1)

Por la carretera,

Distancia recorrida H = 390 - L

Sea el tiempo = t

La Velocidad = distancia/tiempo

60 = (390 - L)/t

t = ( 390 - L)/60

Pero el tiempo total = T + t

<pEs decir

8 = L/20 + (390 - L)/60

<pEl MCM en el lado derecho sería 60<p8 = ( 3L + 390 - L )/60<pMultiplicamos en cruz

480 = 2L + 390

<pAgrupamos los términos semejantes

2L = 480 - 390

2L = 90

L = 90/2

L = 45 millas.

<pAsí que la distancia que Minato recorrió por vías locales es de 45 millas
