Abby'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 Abby's curtain company wants to make 55 curtains, how many feet of fabric will she need? 1 inch = 1 12 foot

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

220 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of each curtain = 48 inches

Number of curtains required for Abby's curtain company = 55

Fabric of curtains is sold by the fabric store foot by foot.

Unit for conversion:

1 inch = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] foot

To find:

The fabric (in feet) needed by Abby.

Solution:

First of all, let us convert the length of each curtain (which is given in inches) to feet.

As per given hint:

1 inch = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] foot

48 inches = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] [tex]\times[/tex] 48 ft = 4 ft

So, length of one curtain is 4 ft.

Now, number of curtains required are 55.

Therefore, total length of curtains required can be found by multiplying the number of curtains with the length of one curtain.

Total length of curtain required = 55 [tex]\times[/tex] 4 = 220 ft

can someone please help? the question is an equilateral triangle is sometimes/always/never similar to a scalene triangle, because we can sometimes/always/never map one onto the other using only dial actions rigid transformations.

Answers

Answer:

An equilateral triangle is never similar to a scalene triangle, because we can never map one onto the other using only dilations and rigid transformations.

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

Explanation:

An equilateral triangle is one where it has all three sides the same length. "Equi" means "equal" while "lateral" means "side". Any equilateral triangle also has all three angles the same measure (we consider it equiangular). Each angle is 60 degrees.

In contrast, a scalene triangle has all of its sides different, so consequently that means all of its three angles must be different as well. If you had exactly two angles congruent to one another, then the opposite sides would be a congruent pair of sides, but then that leads to an isosceles triangle. Also, if all three angles were the same, then we'd get back to an equilateral triangle. So in short, any scalene triangle has all of its angles different.

------------------

Let's consider two cases

Case 1) The scalene triangle has one angle that is 60 degrees, while the other two angles are not 60 degrees.Case 2) The scalene triangle doesn't have any angles that are 60 degrees.

If case 1 happens, then we could match up one pair of 60 degree corresponding angles between the equilateral triangle and the scalene triangle. However, we won't have any more matches. This is because the other two angles aren't 60 (if they were then the triangle isn't scalene). Therefore case 1 leads to dissimilar triangles.

If case 2 happens, then we get the same conclusion as case 1. This time we don't have any angles matching up. Similar triangles must have corresponding angles match up and be congruent. Put another way: similar triangles are the same shape but not necessarily the same size.

------------------

After completing both cases, we can see that it is impossible to have an equilateral triangle be similar to a scalene triangle. In terms of transformations, we cannot apply any of the following

TranslationReflectionRotationDilation

and have one triangle turn into the other. Again, it's all because the angles do not match up. We may have one matching pair, but we need all three pairs to match.

Yin wants to create figure Y′ that is similar to figure Y. Yin begins by reflecting figure Y across the y-axis.


Which of the following should Yin do next to get a figure similar to figure Y?
A. Yin should rotate the figure 90°.
B. Yin should dilate the figure by a scale factor of 2.
C. Yin should reflect the figure across the x-axis.
D. Yin should translate the figure 3 units to the left.

Answers

Answer: B) Dilate by scale factor of 2

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

Explanation:

Your teacher isn't saying this directly, but I'm assuming s/he wants you to find a similar figure that isn't congruent to the original. Informally, your teacher seems to want you to find a figure that is the same shape but not the same size as the original.

If so, then any dilation will shrink or enlarge the image depending on the scale factor. So the new image will not be the same as the old one. In this case, a dilation with scale factor 2 means the new figure is twice as large (each side is twice as long). But the old image is similar to the new image. The angles keep their values and therefore we get the same shape. This is why choice B is the answer. Again this is assuming what I mentioned in the first paragraph.

Choices A, C, and D are all known as rigid transformations and they preserve the same size of the figure. Applying any of those operations will lead to the same figure (just rotated, reflected or shifted somehow). In other words, applying operations A,C, or D will have us get two congruent triangles. If two triangles are congruent, then they are automatically similar, but not vice versa. This is why we can rule out A,C, and D.

Answer:

B

The table below shows all of the possible outcomes for rolling two six-sided number cubes.

A table with 36 possible outcomes. There are 9 desired outcomes.

What is the probability of rolling an even number first and an odd number second?

1/9

1/6

1/4

1/2

Answers

C. 1/4

There is a table with 36 possible outcomes. 9 of them are desired outcomes because they have an even number rolled first and then an odd number rolled second (a few random examples from the table would be 2,1, 2,3, 4,1, 4,5, 6,3 etc.)

All we have to do is make a fraction of the desired outcomes over the total number of possible outcomes. 9/36. That can be simplified into 1/4 and voilà, there is your answer.

Hope this helped ッ

The of getting an even number in first and an odd number second is 1/4.

Enny is selling candles for $3 each at a fund-raiser. If she starts selling with $4 to help her make change, how many candles, x, will she have to sell to end up with $19?

Answers

Answer:

5 candles

Step-by-step explanation:

Enny is selling candles for $3 at a fund raiser

She starts selling $4 to help her make change

Therefore the number of candles x that will be sold to get $19 can be calculated as follows

3x + 4= 19

3x = 19-4

3x= 15

x = 15/3

x= 5

Hence 5 candles must be sold to get $19

y = -8x2 + 242x – 1056

Answers

Answer:

774 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to

the selling price of each widget, x, by the given equation

y = -8x^2 + 242x – 1056

The company made her maximum profit when dy/dx = 0

dy/dx = -16x + 242

0 = -16x + 242

16x = 242

x = 242/16

x = 15.125

Get the maximum amount of the profit

Substituting x = 15.125 into the function we have:

y = -8(15.125)^2 + 242(15.125) – 1056

y = -8(228.77)+3,660.25-1056

y = -1,830.09+3,660.25-1056

y = 773.91

Hence the maximum amount of profit the company can make, to the nearest dollar is 774 dollars
