Answer:

12 3/8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 4 1/2 times 2 3/4 equals 99/8, then 99 divided by 8 equals 12 3/8.

Answer:

$\alpha=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of a Circle</u>

A circle of radius r and centered on the point (h,k) can be expressed by the equation

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

We are given the equation of a circle as

$3x^2+3y^2-6\alpha x+12y-3\alpha=0$

Note we have corrected it by adding the square to the y. Simplify by 3

$x^2+y^2-2\alpha x+4y-\alpha=0$

Complete squares and rearrange:

$x^2-2\alpha x+y^2+4y=\alpha$

$x^2-2\alpha x+\alpha^2+y^2+4y+4=\alpha+\alpha^2+4$

$(x-\alpha)^2+(y+2)^2=r^2$

We can see that, if r=4, then

$\alpha+\alpha^2+4=16$

Or, equivalently

$\alpha^2+\alpha-12=0$

There are two solutions for $\alpha$ :

$\alpha=-4,\ \alpha=3$

Keeping the positive solution, as required:

$\boxed{\alpha=3}$

Orlov [11]

Answer: $A=944\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use the following formula that is used to find the area of a trapezoid:

$A=(\frac{M+m}{2})h$

Where "M"and "m" are the bases of the trapezoid and "h" is the height of the trapezoid.

Based on the information given in the exercise, you can identify that:

$M=c=36\ ft\\\\m=a=23\ ft\\\\h=b=32\ ft$

Knowing these values, you can substitute them into the formula:

$A=(\frac{36\ ft+23\ ft}{2})(32\ ft)$

Finally, you must evaluate in order to find its area. This is:

$A=(\frac{59\ ft}{2})(32\ ft)\\\\A=\frac{1888\ ft^2}{2}\\\\A=944\ ft^2$

djverab [1.8K]

Given :

Ruth wants to buy a skateboard for $44.

She has $100 in her account. She spent $11.36 to buy stationary.

She also wants to buy some comic books for $3.72 each.

To Find :

The maximum number of comic books, n, that Ruth can buy so that she has enough money left to buy the skateboard.

Solution :

Money left after buying skateboard and stationary is :

Money left = $(100 - 11.36 - 44)

Money left = $44.64

Number of comic she can buy is :

$n = \dfrac{44.64}{3.72}\\\\n = 12$

Therefore, she can buy a maximum of 12 books.

Hence, this is the required solution.
