Linda is making curtains . She has 2 1/3 yards of material . She wants to make 3 curtains . She needs 8/9 yard for each curtain . Does she have enough material for 3 curtains?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  No, she does not have enough fabric.

======================================================

Use this formula

a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c

to convert from a mixed number to an improper fraction.

Let's use that formula to find the following

a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c

2 & 1/3 = (2*3+1)/3

2 & 1/3 = 7/3

She has 7/3 yards of material.

Linda wants to make 3 curtains. Each curtain needs 8/9 of a yard.

3*(8/9) = 24/9 = (8*3)/(3*3) = 8/3

Therefore, she needs 8/3 yards of material.

But this is a problem because she needs more material than what she has on hand. In other words, 8/3 > 7/3 since 8 > 7.

-----------

Another way to look at it:

7/3 = 2.333 yards is the approximate amount of fabric she has

8/3 = 2.667 approximately is the total amount of fabric she needs, which is clearly larger than the 2.333 yards she has.

Unfortunately Linda does not have enough fabric to make 3 curtains.

The mean age of 12 women in an office is 22 years old.
The mean age of 3 men in an office is 24 years old.
What is the mean age (nearest year) of all the people in the office?

Answers

The mean age (nearest year) of all the people in the office is 22.4.

How to find the mean age?

Age for women

Age = 12 women × 22 years old / 12

Age = 264 /12

Age = 22

Age for men

Age = 3 men × 24 years old / 3

Age = 72/3

Age = 24

Now let find the mean age

Mean age = Sum of men and women age / Number of men and women

Mean age = 264 + 72 / 12 +3

Mean age = 336 /15

Mean age = 22.4

Therefore the mean age is 22.4.

Skew lines are pairs of lines that share these two features:

The two lines are not parallel.The two lines are not intersecting.

Hence, for each option in this problem, we have that:

QT and UX are not skew lines, as they are parallel lines.QU and UV are not skew lines, as they intersect at the vertex U.QT and WX are skew lines, as they are neither parallel nor intersecting.VW and WX are not skew lines, as they intersect at the vertex W.

Claire’s mom is 4 years older than twice Claire’s age. The sum of their ages is 58 years. Claire’s age is ___ years, and her mothers age is ____ years

Answers

Claire is 18 years old and her mother is 40 years old.

Answer with explanation:

Let Claire's age = x years

Age of Claire's mother =(2 x +4 ) years

Sum of the ages of Claire and her mother =58 years

If we write the above statement in terms of equation , it will be

⇒ x + 2 x +4=58

⇒3 x +4=58

⇒3 x =58 -4

⇒3 x =54

Dividing both side by , 3 , we get

→x=18

Claire's age = 18 years

Age of Claire's mother =(2 x +4 )=2×18+4=36+4= 40 years

The sum of their ages is 58. The "sum of their ages" includes:

Claire's age + 2(Claire's Gage) + 4 = 58

3(Claire's age) + 4 = 58

3 x Claire's age = 58 -4 = 54

Claire's age= 54/3 = 18

Claire is 18 years old.

Since Claire's mom is 4 years older than twice clears age, her age is (18 x 2) + 4 = 40

So Claire is 18 and her mother is 40

Hey there! I would be glad to help you out.

For the first two miles, the price would be six dollars total.

For every mile after that, you would be charged two dollars.

Assuming that you travel 8 miles, you would have to pay six dollars for the first two miles (3*2), and twelve dollars for the last six miles, totaling eighteen dollars.

So the price of an eight mile ride would be eighteen dollars.

You can use this logic for the 50 miles trip too. After traveling 2 miles ($6), there will be 48 more miles.

For these 48 miles, it'll only charge you two dollars each, which would total 96 dollars.

So the price of a fifty mile ride would total $102.

The value of x in the polygon is 9

What is a Heptagon?

A heptagon is a polygon that has seven sides. It is a closed figure having 7 vertices. A heptagon is also sometimes called Septagon.

In Geometry, the shape that is bounded by at least three straight lines or at least three interior angles is called polygon. The most common examples of polygons are

Triangle ( 3 sided polygon)

Quadrilateral ( 4 sided polygon)

Pentagon ( 5 sided polygon)

The polygon is a heptagon with number of sides n = 7

sum of interior angles of a polygon = (n - 2) x 180

if n = 7,

Sum of the interior angles = (7 -2) x 180

                                            = 5 x 180

                                            = 900

summing all the angles in the given polygon, we have

135 + 3x + 31 + 4x + 15 + 6x - 8 = 120 + 7x - 64 + 5x - 4 = 25x + 675

25x + 675 = 900

25x = 900 - 675

25x = 225

x = 225/25

x = 9

Ratio demonstrates how many times one number can fit into another number. Ratios contrast two numbers by ordinarily dividing them.

In this case, Maria’s clothing store sold 1547 shirts with the ratio of short sleeve to long sleeve shirt being 9:8.

The number of short sleeves will be:

By using slope intercept form of equation of line, it can be inferred that Point C is on the line y = x - 5

What is equation of line in slope intercept form?

The most general form of equation of line in slope intercept form is given by y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y intercept of the line.

Slope of a line is the tangent of the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis.

If [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis, then slope (m) is given by

m = [tex]tan\theta[/tex]

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the x axis is the x intercept of the line.

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the y axis is the y intercept of the line.

Here, the given slope intercept form is y = x - 5

For Point A

Putting x = -3

y = -3 -5 = -8 which is not equal to 2

Point A is not on the line y = x - 5

For Point B

Putting x = 1

y = 1 -5 = -4 which is not equal to 6

Point B is not on the line y = x - 5

For Point C

Putting x = 3

y = 3 -5 = -2

Point C is on the line y = x - 5

For Point D

Putting x = -2

y = -2 -5 = -7 which is not equal to -3

Point D is not on the line y = x - 5

Find the equation of the quadratic with a vertex of ( -1, -5) and the point (2,13)

Answers

The quadratic equation with a vertex at (-1, -5) that passes through (2, 13) is:

y = 2*(x + 1)^2 - 5

How to find the quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation with a leading coefficient a and a vertex (h, k) is written as:

y = a*(x - h)^2 + k

Here we know that the vertex is (-1, -5), then our parabola is something like:

y = a*(x + 1)^2 - 5

Now we also know that the quadratic equation contains the point (2, 13), then we can replace the values to get:

13 = a*(2 + 1)^2 - 5

13 = a*3^2 - 5

13 = a*9 - 5

13 + 5 = a*9

18/9 = a

2 = a

Jaden and Emilia biked 88 miles from Daytona Beach to Jacksonville in 2 days. They spent 4 hours biking the first day and 6 hours biking the second day. They biked at one speed the first day and a different speed the next day.

Now, let's take the distance covered on first day to be x miles.

Distance covered on second day = 88-x miles

Following formula is used to find the speed of an object:

Speed = distance/time

Speed of first day = x/4 miles per hour

Speed of the second day = (88-x)/6 miles per hour
