An electrician needs 3/8 of a roll of electrical wire to wire each room in a house. How many rooms can he wire with 2 1/4 rolls of wire? Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 6 rooms

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 rolls of wire are needed to wire a room in a house. If there are a total of 2¹/₄ rolls of wires, the number of rooms that could be wired is:

First convert to an improper fraction:

2¹/₄ = 9/4 rolls of wire

Total number of rooms that can be wired are:

= Total amount of wire available / Wires per room

= 9/4 ÷ 3/8

= 9/4 * 8/3

= 72 / 12

= 6 rooms

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

x+54+5x=90

6x+54=90

6x=36

x=6

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

So, lets go over what we know.

Angle 5x and angle x+54 make up 90 degrees.

We know its 90 degrees since there is a square like symbol on the side of the line.

To sovle for x, we must add the two angles together. This will make them equivelent to 90 degrees.

So:

5x+x+54=90

=

6x+54

Now that we combined our two angles, we can solve it like a normal equation:

6x+54=90

subtract 54 from both sides to get 6x alone:

6x=36

Now divide both sides by 6 so x is alone:

x=6

So now we know that x=6.

If you wan to check your answer, just look at the orginal graph, plug in 8 for x, and see if the two angles add up to 90:

Angle 5x:

5*6

=

30

Angle x+54

6+54

=

60

Add the two angles together:

30+60

=

90

So we have checked and the answer is still correct!

Hope this helps! :D

y = |x+1.5|

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the graph of y = |x|. To shift it left by 1.5 units, replace x with x+1.5.

General rules for shifting graphs:

Shift y = f(x) up by a units: y = f(x) + aShift y = f(x) down by a units: y = f(x) - aShift y = f(x) left by a units: y = f(x + a)Shift y = f(x) right by a units: y = f(x - a)

Answers

Answer:

15 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

75/5 = 15

Answer:

There are 15 tables in the library.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know this because you know the library holds 75 people and you know how many people can sit at a table so to find the answer you divide 75 by 5 and you get 15. To check this you can multiply 15 by 5 and you will get 75.

Answers

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

not a bc it has to be negative

not c bc its has to be negative

not b bc the slope is -1/2

IT'S D

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

from the picture, we know that the slope is negative to begin, since the line is going on a downward direction from left to right. this eliminated A and C instantly.

Now we also can see the graph crossed at 3 for the y intercept, which is another reason to eliminate A and C.

we must then find the show of the line.

let us use to point (0,3) since this is the y intercept and (6,0) since this is the x intercept. to find the slope, m, at must use the equation

[tex]m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]

so, let's label (0,3) as point 1 and (6,0) as point two. then,

x1 = 0

y1= 3

and

x2= 6

y2=0

Now we just plug in and simplify.

[tex] m = \frac{0 - 3}{6 - 0} = \frac{ - 3}{6} = - \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

we now have our slope and y intercept, so we can plug them into our equation

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

our equation is thus

[tex]y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 3[/tex]

so, the answer is D

Greg uses a triangular area of his back yard as a garden.If the area if his garden 1.248 square feet,whats the area of the garden?

Answers

Answer:

192 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangular backyard = 1248 ft²

Width of backyard = 52 ft

Length = x

Area of rectangular backyard = Length * width

1248 = x * 52

x = 1248 / 52

x = 24 feets

Hence, x = height of triangular garden

Area of triangle = 1/2 base * height

Area = 1/2 * 16 * 24

Area = 192 ft²

Sally can paint a room in 9 hours while it takes Steve 5 hours to paint the same room. How long would it take them to paint the room if they worked​ together?

Answers

Answer: About 3 hours and 5 minutes to paint the room together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally can paint 1/5 of the room in an hour and Steve can paint 1/8 of the room in an hour.

Room/Hour

1/5 ± 1/8 =8/40  

8/40+5/40=13/40

How long to paint the room?

13/40 x 1= 40/13

40÷13=3.0777

So the answer will be Sally and Steve can paint the room in about 3 hours and 5 minutes

__m²
Composite made up of a rectangular prism surmounted by a triangular prism. The rectangular prism has dimensions of 16 meters wide by 20 meters long by 12 meters high. The triangular prism has dimensions of 16 meters wide by 20 meters long with a triangular altitude of 8 meters high.

Answers

SEE THE IMAGE BELOW (I REALLY HOPE THIS IS CORRECT!!!)

Answer:

1764 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to attached picture.

All given dimensions are given on the picture (not to scale).

Since altitude of the triangle and slant height is given, we can find the base of the triangle using Pythagorean:

[tex]b/2 = \sqrt{11.3^2-8^2} = \sqrt{64} = 8m, \\b = 16 m[/tex]

It has 9 faces and the total surface area is:

S = 16*20 + 2(20*12) + 2(20*11.3) + 2(16*12) + 2(1/2*8*16)  = 1764 m²
