A manufacturer uses 3/4 yard of fabric to make each skirt. How many yards of fabric will the manufacturer use to make 4 skirts ? 7 skirts ? 9 skirts

Answers

Answer:

3 yards,5.25 yard,6.75 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Each skirt required 3/4 yards fabric

Solution,

1 skirt required fabric =3/4 yards

4 skirts required fabric=4×3/4 yards=3 yards

7 skirts required fabric =7×3/4 yards=21/4 yards=5.25 yards

9 skirts required fabric=9×3/4 yards=27/4 yards=6.75 yards

Final answer:

To find out how many yards of fabric will be used, multiply the number of skirts by the amount of fabric needed for each skirt. For 4 skirts, 3 yards of fabric will be used. For 7 skirts, 5.25 yards will be used. For 9 skirts, 6.75 yards will be used.

Explanation:

To find out how many yards of fabric will be used to make a certain number of skirts, we can multiply the number of skirts by the amount of fabric needed for each skirt. In this case, 3/4 yard of fabric is needed for each skirt.

So, to find out how many yards of fabric will be used to make 4 skirts, we can multiply 4 by 3/4:

4 x 3/4 = 12/4 = 3 yards.

To find out how many yards of fabric will be used to make 7 skirts, we can multiply 7 by 3/4:

7 x 3/4 = 21/4 = 5.25 yards.

To find out how many yards of fabric will be used to make 9 skirts, we can multiply 9 by 3/4:

9 x 3/4 = 27/4 = 6.75 yards.

What is the decimal equivalent of an 11% increase

Answers

Answer:

0.11

Step-by-step explanation:

You would convert the percentage to a fraction. Since the % symbol means 'out of 100', you would put 11 over 100: 11/100.

Then you would convert the fraction to a decimal: 0.11.

An easier way could also be to take the percentage and move it two decimal places to the right.

Ex: 43% moved two decimal places to the right would be 0.43.

Find the values of the variables and the measures of the angles

Answers

The angles of the triangle are 39°, 51°, and 90°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The sum of all the angles in any triangle is equal to 180°.

We have two of the three angles in terms of x while the third angle is not given directly. Since it is a right-angled triangle, one of the angles equals 90°.

So the angles of the triangle are [tex]3x,[/tex] [tex]4x-1,[/tex] and [tex]90.[/tex]

Step 2:

Now, we substitute all the angles to a sum of 180 to determine the value of x.

[tex]3x + 4x - 1 + 90 = 180.[/tex]

[tex]7x = 91, x = \frac{91}{7} = 13.[/tex]

So x = 13°. The angles are

[tex]3x = 3 (13) = 39, 4x-1 = 4(13) - 1 = 51.[/tex]

The angles of the triangle are 39°, 51°, and 90°.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4x - 1 = 90⁰

7x = 91

x = 13

Angles are = 39 , 51⁰

Consider the two functions described below. Function 1 describes the cost, y, to park in a parking lot for x hours. There is a flat fee of $7.00 and $1.00 charge per hour. Function 2 is represented in the graph below. It shows the cost, y, to park in a parking garage, for x hours. Which statement correctly explains whether the parking lot or parking garage charges a higher rate per hour to park?


A. The parking lot charges a higher rate per hour because when you compare the rates, 7 4.


B. The parking garage charges a higher rate per hour because when you compare the rates, 2 1.


C. The parking lot charges a higher rate per hour because when you compare the rates, 7 2.


D. The parking garage charges a higher rate per hour because when you compare the rates, 4 1.

Answers

Statement B explains correctly that the parking garage charges a higher rate per hour than the parking lot. Statements B and D are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

For the parking lot, there is a flat fee of $7.00 and then a charge of $1.00 every hour.

So if a vehicle was parked for 1 hour charges are 7 + 1 (1) = $8,

If parked for two hours charges are 7 + 1 (2) = $9.

Step 2;

To understand the pricing of the parking garage, we must plot the points of the graph.

The points on the graph are (0, 4), (1, 6), (2, 8), (3, 10), (4, 12), (5, 14)...

So for the parking garage, there is a flat fee of $4 and then a charge of $2.00 every hour.

So if a vehicle was parked for 1 hour charges are 4 + 2 (1) = $6,

If parked for two hours charges are 4 + 2 (2) = $8.

Step 3:

Comparing both the parking lot and the parking garage, we get that the flat fee for the parking lot is higher while the parking charges for an hour are higher for the parking garage which is statement B.

Statement B and D are the same.

B

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming your system is:

[tex]x + 3y = 4[/tex]

[tex]3x - 5y = 8[/tex]

Then make x the subject in the first equation to get:

[tex]x = 4 - 3y[/tex]

Put this equation into the second equation to get:

[tex]3(4 - 3y) - 5y = 8[/tex]

[tex]12 - 9y - 5y = 8[/tex]

[tex] - 9y - 5y = 8 - 12[/tex]

[tex] -14y = - 4[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{ - 4}{ - 14} = \frac{2}{7} [/tex]

This means that:

[tex]x = 4 - 3 \times \frac{2}{7} [/tex]

[tex]x = 4 - \frac{6}{7} = \frac{22}{7} [/tex]

On the number line, a bug A is moving in the positive direction from the point 0, and a bug Bis moving in the negative direction from the point 0. The speeds of both bugs are constant. Both leave 0 at the same time, and three seconds later A has reached 18 and B has reached –15.

If x is the point reached by A after t seconds, and y is the point reached by Bafter t seconds, express x and y in terms of t.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=st[/tex]

[tex]y=-5t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

so

The distance is equal to multiply the speed by the time

Let

s ----> the speed in units per second

d ---> the distance in units

t ---> is the time in seconds

BUG A

we have

[tex]d=18\ units[/tex]

[tex]t=3\ sec[/tex]

The speed is equal to

[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]

substitute

[tex]s=\frac{18}{3}=6\ units/sec[/tex]

If x is the point reached by A after t seconds

then

Multiply the speed by the time

[tex]x=st[/tex]

[tex]x=6t[/tex]

BUG B

we have

[tex]d=-15\ units[/tex]

[tex]t=3\ sec[/tex]

The speed is equal to

[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]

substitute

[tex]s=\frac{15}{3}=5\ units/sec[/tex]

If y is the point reached by B after t seconds

then

Multiply the speed by the time

[tex]y=st[/tex]

[tex]y=-5t[/tex]  ----> is negative because B is moving in the negative direction

Answer:

x = 6t

y = 5t

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the distance formula:

D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is speed

T is time

Bug A went 18 units after 3 seconds, so the speed is:

18 = R(3)

R = 18/3

R = 6 unit/sec

Bug B went 15 units in 3 seconds, so the speed is:

15 = R(3)

R = 15/3

R = 5 units/sec

x is reached by A after 3 seconds, so

x = 6t

y is reached by B after 3 seconds, so

y = 5t

Hillary and Charlene both drove from City A to City B. At 10 a.m., Hillary left City A and drove at an average speed of 120 km/h. Charlene drove at an average speed of 144 km/h and took 50 minutes. She arrived at City B at the same time as Hillary. Find the time Charlene left City A.

Answers

Charlene left city A at 10: 10 AM

Solution:

Given that,

At 10 a.m., Hillary left City A and drove at an average speed of 120 km/h

Charlene drove at an average speed of 144 km/h and took 50 minutes.

She arrived at City B at the same time as Hillary

Their distance is same

Find the ratio of speed

120 : 144

Reduce to lowest term

Hillary : charlne = 5 : 6

Find the ratio of time:

Since, speed and time are inversely propotional

Hillary : charlne = 6 : 5

Let time taken by Hiliary be 6t

Let time taken by charlene be 5t

Given that, Charlene took 50 minutes

Therefore,

5t = 50

t = 10

Thus,

time taken by Hiliary = 6t = 6(10) = 60

Thus hiliary took 60 minutes to reach

Find the time Charlene left City A

At 10 a.m., Hillary left City A

Difference between both their time = 60 - 50 = 10 minutes

Thus, Hilairy left city A = 10 am + 10 minutes = 10 : 10 a.m

Thus, Hillary left city A at 10: 10 AM

Which formula is best used to prove that a figure has congruent sides?
a) Slope formula
b)Area formula
c) Midpoint formula
d) Distance formula

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent sides mean that they have "EQUAL" lengths.

So, to prove to sides are congruent means that their lengths are equal.

Slope gives the slope of a line. So this can't be it.

Area gives the area of figure. Nothing to do with congruency of 2 lines.

Midpoint formula gives the coordinates of the midpoint. Nothing here.

Distance formula gives the length of sides. So, this is the one we can use to prove that a figure has congruent sides. We can place the figure in coordinate system and find the length of 2 respective sides using "distance formula"
