Albert is growing tomato plants and studying their heights. He measured Plant A at 3 7/8 feet. He measure Plant B at 2 1/4 feet. He said that Plant B is 1 6/4 feet smaller than Plant A. Is Albert correct? Why or Why not?

Albert is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

You first have to subtract Plant B's measurement from Plant A's measurement.

3 7/8-2 1/4 => 3 7/8-2 2/8

If you solve it you get 1 5/8. Since it cannot be reduced this is the final answer.

i used to know how to do this in 7th but i forget easily

step-by-step explanation:

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
