At the farmers' market, Lillian bought 5/12 of a pound of string beans and 1/12 of a pound of lima beans. How many more pounds of string beans did Lillian purchase? Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

1/3 more pounds of string beans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of string beans: 5/12 of a lbs(pound)

Amount of lima beans: 1/12 of a lbs

Amount of string beans - Amount of lima beans = 5/12-1/12 =4/12 which simplifies down to 1/3.

the answer is (-8,-5)

step-by-step explanation:

the endpoint to midpoint is half the length. the length is (-2,-1) so when you are at the midpoint just add it to it to find your answer -6+(-2)= -8 and -4+(-1)=-5 so (-8,-5)

d. $180

step-by-step explanation:

if the dimensions of the room is 9ft by 12 ft, we have the area of the floor as,

so the area of the floor is 108 square feet, converting that into square yards we get,

the cost of carpet is $15 per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 12 square yards is,

hence, the cost of carpet is $180.

assuming the dimensions of the room be,

15 ft by 12 ft

so, the area of the floor of that room is,

we can convert 180 square feet into square yards, we know that,

1 sq ft = 0.111 sq yard

so, 180 square feet is,

so the area of floor is 20 square yards.

now, the cost of carpet is 15 dollars per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 20 square yards is,

so, it will cost $300.
