A number line going from 0 to 4. Numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 are marked on the line. Marks divide the spaces between each number into 2 equal parts. Ms. Cole has 4 yards of string. She cuts the string into pieces that are each 1 2 yard long. How many pieces of string does Ms. Cole have?

8 pieces of string

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total yards of string = 4

Length in yd of each string = 1/2 yards

Number of pieces of string Ms. Cole has :

Total. Yards / length in yard of each string

4 / (1/2)

4 * (2 /1)

= 8/1

= 8 pieces of string.

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.
