Answer:

The approximate total cost for the blanket is $10.08 ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L × W

The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(L + W)

where:

  • L is the length of the rectangle
  • W is the width of the rectangle

∵ The baby blanket shaped a rectangle

∵ The dimensions of the blanket are 3 feet and 5 feet

- Find the area of the blanket

∵ A = 3 × 5 = 15 feet²

- Change feet to yard because the cost is by square yard

∵ 1 foot = \frac{1}{3} yard

∴ 1 foot² = (\frac{1}{3})^{2}=\frac{1}{9} yard²

∴ 15 feet² = 15 × (\frac{1}{9}) = \frac{5}{3} yards²

∴ The area of the blanket is  \frac{5}{3} yards²

∵ The fabric cost of the blanket is $1.25 per square yard

∴ The fabric cost =  \frac{5}{3} × 1.25

∴ The fabric cost = 2.08333 dollars

∵ Heather is going to put a ribbon border around it

- The length of the ribbon is equal to the perimeter of the blanket

∵ P = 2(3 + 5) = 16 feet

∴ The length of the ribbon is 16 feet

∵ The cost of the ribbon is $0.5 per foot

∴ The cost of the ribbon = 16 × 0.5

∴ The cost of the ribbon = 8 dollars

Now add the fabric cost to the ribbon cost to find the total cost of the blanket

∵ The total cost = 2.08333 + 8

∴ The total cost = 10.08333

- Round it to the nearest cent

∴ The total cost = 10.08 dollars

The approximate total cost for the blanket is $10.08

I am so confused, can someone help

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. To solve for "y" you want to isolate the variable. What this means is you want to keep "y" on its own. To do this first we will subtract 2x from the equation making 4y = 36 - 2x. Next, we will get rid of 4 to do this divide 4 from both sides. y = (36 - 2x)/4

*I have to go in a bit so sry for no explenation*

b. h = 2a/b

c. x = 1/4y + -3/4

PLEASE HELP! I'LL GIVE BRAINLIEST:)
Taya2010 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if (h,k) is the center of any circle and whose radius is = r then its equation is :

{(x - h)}^{2}  +  {(y - k)}^{2}  =  {r}^{2}

Given, the equation of circle

{(x + 2)}^{2}  + (y - 3) ^{2}  = 25 =  {5}^{2}

By comparing, we will get,

h = -2

k = 3

So, center of the circle is ( -2,3)

Initially a ship and a submarine are stationary at sea level, positioned 1.78km apart. The submarine then manoeuvres to position
poizon [28]
I’m assuming ‘dives further’ means to go directly down

the angle of elevation of the ship from the submarine is equal to the angle of depression of the submarine from the ship, if we assume the sea level is perpendicular to ‘directly down’.

let both of these angles to be = $ when the submarine is at A and ¥ when the submarine is at B (excuse the lack of easily accessible variables as keys)

then this become a simple trig problem:

A)

Let O be the position of of the ship, and C be the original position of the submarine.

therefore, not considering direction

|OC| = 1.78km = 1780m

|CA| = 45m

these are the adjacent and opposite sides of a right angled triangle.

But tan($) = opp/adj = |CA|/|OC| = 45/1780

therefore $ = arctan(45/1780) which is roughly 1.45 degrees,

B)

similarly, noting that |CB| = |CA| + |AB| = 45 + 62 = 107m


tan(¥) = 107/1780

¥ = arctan(107/1780) which is roughly 3.44 degrees
