Answer:

An equation to model the situation is 18+2x=24 and the width of the border is 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :A painting is 18 inches wide. It is placed inside a frame with a border that is x inches wide.

The total width of the painting and the frame is 24 inches.

To Find : Create an equation to model the situation, and then solve the equation to find the width of the border.

Solution :

Width of painting = 18 inches

It is placed inside a frame with a border that is x inches wide. (from 1 side)

So, Total width of painting +frame  = 18+2x

We are given that The total width of the painting and the frame is 24 inches.

So, equation becomes : 18+2x=24

18+2x=24

2x=6

x=3

Hence an equation to model the situation is 18+2x=24 and the width of the border is 3 inches

find a positive angle less than one revolution around the unit circle that is co-terminal with the given angle -15pi/17
natta225 [31]
ANSWER
=\frac{19}{17} \pi

EXPLANATION

To find a positive angle that is coterminal with
-  \frac{15}{17}  \pi

We add multiples of 2π until we get a positive angle that is less than one revolution,


We add to obtain,


-  \frac{15}{17}  \pi + 2\pi


This simplifies to,

=  \frac{19}{17} \pi

This is the first positive angle that is coterminal with
-  \frac{15}{17}  \pi


and is less than one revolution.

Toillet paper is sold in cases for 36 rolls for $14.99 what is the per price per roll?
Eva8 [605]
Alright, so the unknown value here we want to know is the price of one roll of TP. Let's call it "x".
36x=14.99
Divide both sides by 36 to get the price of a single roll.
x=.41638888....
We have to round this to hundredths because we're talking in cents, so...
x=.42
Each roll of toilet paper costs 42 cents.
