Answer:

6 projects

Step-by-step explanation:

Original ribbon length = 24 yards

After 10 yards given to sister, Mia is left with 24-10 = 14 yards of ribbon

Each project requires 2 1/4 yards of ribbon.

2 1/4 is 9/4 yards as an improper fraction (2 * 4 + 1 is the numerator and the denominator is unchanged)

We now have to figure out how many times 9/4 yards goes into 14 yards.

For this,

14 ÷ 9/4.
To do this, flip the numerator and denominator of the fraction and multiply

14 ÷ 9/4 = 14 × 4/9 = 56/9 . We ignore any remainder.

9 goes into 56 6 times with remainder of 2 (ignore remainder)
In other words the greatest number of projects = 6

Are you supposed to estimate or get an exact answer? If you're estimating you can see if the number is close to any perfect squares. In this case 63 is very close to 64, and 48 is very close to 49. The answers can then be estimated to be approximately 8 and 7, respectively.

AveGali [126]

Answer: 1. Equation =3x = M , where x = money each received and M= total money received.

2.total money from bake sale=$96.57

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Let the total money receive from proceeds be = M

and let the amount of money each receive after the split  = x

Since   Jan and her two friends raised the money together, the total proceeds will be calculated using the equation

x+x+x= M

3 x = M ---- Equation

STEP 2--- Solving

if 3 x= M

and x =mount of money each receive after the split=$32.19

Therefore total money from bake sale, M = 3x = 3 x 32.19 = $96.57

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The boat is 5727.25ft far from the coast

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the figure given.

We need to find how far is the boat from the coast = AB

Angle of elevation = 2°

The lighthouse on the coast is 200 feet tall, AC = 200 ft

We have

           tan2=\frac{AC}{AB}=\frac{200}{AB}\\\\AB=\frac{200}{tan2}=5727.25ft

The boat is 5727.25ft far from the coast
