The new length of the string will be 16  1/4 feet. Then the correct option is B.

<h3>What is the length?</h3>

It is the measure of distance between the two points and is known as length. The length is measured in meters generally.

Ed needed to extend the string on his kite. The current string was seven and three-fourths feet that is (7  3/4).

The mixed fraction number is coverted into a decimal number.

7  3/4 = 7.75 feet

He cut a piece of string that measured 8.5 feet and added it to the existing string.

Then the new length of the string will be

L = 7.75 + 8.5

L = 16.25

L = 16  1/4 feet

The new length of the string will be 16  1/4 feet. Then the correct option is B.

More about the distance link is given below.

What is the approximate area of a sector given O= 56 degrees with a diameter of 12m?​
jeyben [28]

Area of sector is 17.584 meters

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to find the approximate area of a sector given O= 56 degrees with a diameter of 12m

Diameter = 12 m

Radius = Diameter / 2 = 6 m

An angle of  56 degrees is the fraction \frac{56}{360} of the whole rotation

A sector of a circle with a sector angle of 56 degrees is therefore also the fraction \frac{56}{360} of the circle

The area of the sector will therefore also be  \frac{56}{360} of the area

\text{ sector area } = \frac{56}{360} \times \pi r^2\\\\\text{ sector area } = \frac{56}{360} \times 3.14 \times 6^2\\\\\text{ sector area } = 17.584

Thus area of sector is 17.584 meters

In an aquarium, the ratio of sharks to dolphins is 3 : 5 and the ratio of
Molodets [167]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1: how many dolphins

there are 6 sharks

sharks to dolphins is 3 to 5

3 S to 5 D

we can divide 6 (amount of sharks known) by 3, to get what a ratio of 1 is

6 ÷ 3 = 2

so 2 sharks is = 1 part or ratio

now we can times by 5 to get a ratio of 5

5 × 2 = 10

there are 10 Dolphins

Step 2: How many starfish

repeat the steps above but for the ratio 2: 7 where 2 is the Dolfin ratio and there are 10 dolphins

The flag of a country contains an isosceles triangle.​ (Recall that an isosceles triangle contains two angles with the same​ mea
weeeeeb [17]

31 degrees, 31 degrees, 118 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Let x be the measure of 2 angles of the given isosceles triangle with same measure

Let y be the measure of  3rd angle

So we have x + x + y = 180

Step 2 :

Given that the measure of  3rd angle of  triangle is 25​° more than three times the measure of either of the other two​ angles

So we have , y = 3 x + 25

Step 3:

Substituting for y in the first equation we have,

x + x + 3 x + 25 = 180

=> 5 x + 25 = 180

=> 5 x = 180-25 = 155

=> x = 155/5 = 31

Hence the 2 angles of the triangle are 31 degrees.

Step 4:

we have y = 3 x + 25

=> y = 3 * 31 + 25 = 118

Hence the 3rd angle of given triangle is 118 degrees
