Answer:

<h2>Chloe cut the wrong amount of fabric,</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the problem, Chloe needs 0.8 yards of fabric to make a skirt. However, they ask her to cut an extra 12%. To find the right answer, we have to calculate the 12% of 0.8, and then sum it with the standard yards for the skirt. That is

0.12(0.8)+0.8=0.096+0.8=0.896 \ yd

This means that Chloe cut the wrong amount of fabric, because she only cut the 12% without adding the initial 0.8 yards.

The right amount of fabric is 0.896 yards.

No she didnt. She needs 12% more of .8 yards.

.8 yards x 12% more = 0.096+.8= 0.896 yards to cut

Sierra applies a coat of epoxy paint to the four sides and floor of a rectangular swimming pool. The pool is 4 feet deep, 18 fee
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

4 gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using the formula for surface area of rectangular prism.

A=2(wl+hl+hw)

Where:

w = Width

h = Height

l = Length

The pool is 4 feet deep, 18 feet long, and 12 feet wide.

Hence,

=2 × (12 × 18 + 4 × 18 + 4 ×12)

=672 square feet

One gallon of paint covers 155 square feet.

Hence,

155 square feet = 1 gallon of paint

672 square feet = x

Cross Multiply

155 square feet × x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint

x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint/ 155 square feet

x = 4.335483871 gallons of paint

Therefore, based on the calculation above, approximately to the nearest whole number, Sierra uses 4 gallons of paint

the sum of the first n terms of a sequence is 20 - 10 / 2 ^ n - 1 find the sum of the first five terms​
Travka [436]

Answer:

S_5=\dfrac{170}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The sum of first n term of a sequence isS_n=20-\dfrac{10}{2n-1}

We need to find the sum of the first 5 terms.

Put n = 5,

S_5=20-\dfrac{10}{2(5)-1}\\\\=20-\dfrac{10}{10-1}\\\\=20-\dfrac{10}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{170}{9}

So, the sum of first 5 terms is equal to \dfrac{170}{9}.

In art class,Kerion is coloring a pattern where half of the squares on her paper are being colored blue. Of the blue squares,1/3
stiv31 [10]
To get the fraction of blue squares with stripes we shall proceed as follows;
fraction of blue squares=1/2
1/3 of the blue squares have stripes, therefore we shall have:
fraction of blue square with stripes
=1/3 of 1/2
=1/3×1/2
=1/6
Hence we conclude that the fraction of blue squares with stripes was 1/6 of the total colored squares.
