Asection of a boardwalk is made using 15 boards. each board is 9 1/4 inches wide. the total width of the section is 144 inches. the spacing between each board is equal. what is the width of the spacing between each board? write your answer in simplest form.

The width of the spacing between  each board is inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Each board .

Let's convert the mixed number to improper fraction.

Total width of 15 boards = inches

Now we have to find the total space between the boards.

The total space = 144 -

The total space =

There 14 equal spaces between each board.

To find the width of spacing between each board, we need to divide by 14.

The width of spacing between each board =

Now we can convert the mixed number to improper and multiply with the reciprocal of 14.

The reciprocal of 14 is

=

Therefore, the width of the spacing between  each board is inches.

-14

step-by-step explanation:

2x2 – 2(x+4)

=2x2-2（5+4）

=4-2×9

=4-18

=-14

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
