Tonya’s grandma has two pieces of cloth. She wants to estimate how much longer one piece is than the other. She will estimate to the nearest half inch. One piece is 4 7/8 yards long. The other piece is 6 1/8 yards long. The difference in the two pieces of cloth is about how much?

1 ¼ yards

Step-by-step explanation:

6⅛ - 4⅞

6⅛ = 5 + 9/8

(5 + 9/8) - (4 + 7/8)

(5 - 4) + (9 - 7)/8

1 + 2/8

1¼ yards

its c or d   take a lucky guess my dude

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
