Joanie's curtain company is making curtains for a local hotel. She wants each curtain to be 48 inches long. At the fabric store, fabric is sold by the foot. If Joanie's curtain company wants to make 56 curtains, how many feet of fabric will she need?
1 inch =1/12 foot

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 224 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Each curtain is 48 inches long, and she wants to make 56 curtains.

However, the fabric store sells by the foot.

There are two ways to do this:

1) You can convert beforehand.

48 inches= 4 feet because 1 inch=1/2 foot.

Multiply 48 by 1/12 to find how many feet are in 48 inches.

= 48/12

=4

So 48 inches= 4 feet

Now, each curtain is 4 feet. There are 56 curtains to be made.

Now multiply by 4 to find how many feet are in 56 curtains.

56x4=224 feet.

Answer= 224 ft

Or: You can convert afterwards

48x56= how many inches in 56 curtains

= 2,688 inches

Then, convert to feet!

1 inch= 1/12 foot

2688 multiplied by 1/12:

=2688/12

=224 feet

Answer= 224 feet

Either way, you both get 224 feet.

How to find the missing dimensions of a prism

Answers

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know the volume or total surface area of the prism and 2 of the dimensions.

The formula for the volume = wlh   where w = width , l = length and h = height.

So knowing say w = 4, l = 8 and V =  192 we have:

V = wlh

192 = 4 * 8 * h

h = 192/4*8

= 192/32

= 6.

1 The prism-shaped roof has equilateral triangular bases. Use the model you created in question #1 to calculate the height of the roof, to the nearest tenth of a foot, if the side lengths each measure 25 feet. In your final answer, include all necessary calculations. You may include a sketch as part of your work.

2 To determine the amount of roofing materials needed, the area of the roof's entire surface is calculated, including the ceiling of the garage. Considering the sketch of the roofing design, create a formula to model the area of the roof's entire surface. In your final answer, include all of your calculations.

3The contractor in charge of the roofing project is trying to make the job the most cost effective for the homeowners. In order to cut back on the cost of supplies, he decides that a ceiling in the garage is not necessary. In other words, there will not be a barrier built between the garage and the roof. In two or more complete sentences, explain how these changes affect the model for the area of the roof's entire surface.

try your best i really need help!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:  As shown in the attached figure, the prism-shaped roof has equilateral triangular bases, one of which is ΔABC. We need to create an equation that models the height of one of the roof's triangular bases in terms of its sides. Let ii be AD.

See the figure attached herewith, ΔABC forms an equilateral triangle, in which AD is the height. So, D will be the mid-point of BC and ∠ADB = ∠ADC = 90°.

Now, in ΔADB, we have

AD^2=AB^2-BD^2

AD^2=AB^2-(1/2AB^2)^2

AD=√3/4AB^2

we can find the height of any one of the roof's triangular bases.

2.1. Check picture 1. Let the one side of the triangle be a, drop one perpendicular, CD. Then triangle ADB is a right triangle, with hypothenuse a and one side equal to 1/2a. By the Pythagorean theorem, as shown in the picture, the height is √3/2a

2. if a=25 ft, then the height is  √3/2a=√3/2*25=1.732/2*25=21.7(ft)

3. consider picture 2. Let the length of the roof be l feet.

one side of the prism (the roof) is a rectangle with dimensions a and l, so the area of one side is a*l

the lateral Area of the roof is 3a*l

the area of the equilateral surfaces is 2*(1/2*a*√3/2a)=√3/2a^2  

so the total area of the roof is  

4. The total area was the 2 triangular surfaces + the 3 equal lateral rectangular surfaces. Now instead of 3 lateral triangular surfaces, we have 2.

So the total area found previously will be decreased by al

5. so the area now is √3/2a^2 + 2al  

6. now a=25 and l=2a=50

Area= √3/2a^2+2al=√3/2*25^2+2*25*50=25^2(√3/2+4)=625*4.866

Answer:

1) C. 4 - 3·i

2) D. The second graph shares the same vertex, is inverted, and opens wider than the first graph

3) C. y = (x - 2)² + 3 would shift right two units

4) B. Figure B' is congruent but not similar to figure B

5) A. m∠k' = m∠k

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given that the real part of the complex number = 4

The imaginary of the complex number = -3

The general form of representing complex numbers is z = a + b·i, we have;

The binomial equivalent to the complex number is z = 4 - 3·i

2) The first graph equation is y = 2·x²

When x = 1, y = 2 and when x = 2, y = 8

The vertex = (h, k)

Where;

h = -b/(2.a) and b = 0, a = 2

∴ h = 0/(2 × 2) = 0

h = 0

k = f(h) = f(0) = 2 × 0² = 0

k = 0

The vertex, (h, k) = (0, 0)

The coefficient, 'a' is positive, therefore, the graph opens down

The second function, y = -(1/2)·x² also has a vertex (h, k) = (0, 0)

The coefficient, 'a' is positive, therefore, the graph opens up

When x = 1, y = -1/2 and when x = 2, y = -2

Therefore, the second function is wider

Therefore;

The second graph shares the same vertex, is inverted, and opens wider than the first graph

3) The given functions are;

First function; y = x² + 3 and second function; y = (x - 2)² + 3

First function;

When x = 1, y = x² + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4

∴ When x = 1, y = 4

Second function;

When y = 4, y = 4 = (x - 2)² + 3

√(1) = x - 2

x = 3

∴ When x = 3, y = 4

First function;

When x = 2, y = x² + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7

∴ When x = 2, y = 7

Second function;

When y = 7, y = 7 = (x - 2)² + 3

√4 = 2 = (x - 2)

x = 2 + 2 = 4

x = 4

∴ When x = 4, y = 7

Therefore, the second function, y = (x - 2)² + 3, has the x-value shifted 2 units to the right for a given value of 'y'

4) The lengths of the sides of figure B are 3 by 4, the lengths of the sides of figure B' 4.5 by 6

The ratio of the corresponding length and width of figures B and B' are;

3/4.5 = 4/6

Therefore, figure B' is similar but not congruent to figure B

5) A rotation and a reflection are rigid transformations and therefore, the dimensions and measure of the original figure and the image are the same;

∴ m∠k' = m∠k.

Answers

Answer:

The bigger the number you divide by (the divisor), the smaller the resulting shares. Picture: Split a single pizza between 2 people, and each gets 1/2 a pie. Compare that to splitting it among 4 people - now each person gets less: only 1/4 each. 8 people? Still less: 1/8. Split the single pizza among 100? … Each gets, well, barely a bite! Suppose we start with 2 whole pizzas. Split between 2 people, now each gets 1 whole pie. Divide among 4, each gets 1/2 pie. Divide 8 ways, each gets 1/4.

The value of the fraction when 1/4 is divided by 2 is 1/8

How can we take division in terms of fraction?

Suppose we've to divide 'a' by 'b'

We write it as: [tex]a \div b[/tex]
This can be written in fraction form as:

[tex]a\div b = \dfrac{a}{b} = {a} \times \dfrac{1}{b}[/tex]

For this case, we have to divide 1/4 by 2 and express it into fraction form.

Thus, we get:

[tex]1/4 \div 2 = \dfrac{1/4}{2} = \dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{1}{8}[/tex]

Thus, the value of the fraction when 1/4 is divided by 2 is 1/8
