3 costumes can be made from 15 feet of fabric

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion can be sued to solve the following problem

Given

Total fabric = 40 feet

Costumes = 8

Fabric = 15 feet

Costumes = ?

Let x be the number of costumes that can be made with 15 feet of fabric

Fabric:Costumes::Fabric:costumes\\40:8::15:x\\\frac{40}{8} = \frac{15}{x}\\40x = 15*8\\40x = 120

Dividing both sides by 40

\frac{40x}{40} = \frac{120}{40}\\x = 3

Hence,

3 costumes can be made from 15 feet of fabric

If f(x) = 3x + 3, g(x) = 3x + 3, and h(x) = x + 3, what is [g o f o h](–5)?
emmasim [6.3K]
The answer would be -6.
Start by substituting -5 into the 'h' function.
h(-5) = -5 + 3 = -2
Now substitute this answer into the 'f' function.
f(-2) = 3(-2) + 3 = -3
now substitute this answer into the 'g' function
g(-3) = 3(-3) + 3 = -6
D is your answer

36x^2-21x-30 factor
miv72 [106K]
Easy...

to even begin to factor..you must factor out a 3, to simplify your answer.

3(12x^{2}-7x-10)

Now, you can factor.

3(12 x^{2} -7x-10)

So..to find the answer...

12*-10=-120x
and 
you would use -7x

What multiplies to -120..but adds to -7?

-15*8=-120
and
-15+8=-7

To find the answer, plug in what you know..

3(3x+2)(4x-5)

Thus, your answer.
