Answer: This coil will not be enough to complete the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the coil of wiring can be calculated with:

C=2\pi r

Where r is the radius and \pi=3.14

The radius can be calculated by dividing the diameter by 2. Then:

r=\frac{18in}{2}\\\\r=9in

Convert 9 inches to yards (1 yard=36 inches):

(9in)(\frac{1yd}{36in})=0.25yd

Substitute this radius into the formula:

C=2(3.14)(0.25yd)\\C=1.57yd

Since there are 21 circles of wire, you need to multiply C=1.57yd by 21:

C_T=(1.57yd)(21)=32.97yd

The coil has 32.97 yards of wire and Alex needs 34 yards, therefore, this coil will not be enough  to complete the job.

How would I do this question using odd co
Liono4ka [1.6K]
Consecutive odd numbres are 2 apart
they numbers are x and x+2
square of first plus 3 times 2nd is 24
first is x
2nd is x+2

x²+3(x+2)=24
easy
x²+3x+6=24
minus 24 both sides
x²+3x-18=0
factor
(x+6)(x-3)=0
set to ezr
x+6=0
x=-6
false, this is even
x-3=0
x=3
x+2=5

the numbers are  3 and 5
9+15=24, yah



3 and 5 are numbers
