<h2>Answer:</h2>

The length of the three yards when they are placed end to end is:

                     14.125 yards.

( Since, Length of first strip = 3.5 yards.

Length of Second strip = 4.375 yards.

Length of Third strip = 6.25 yards.  )

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

3 strips of 2 yard wide outdoor carpet are used to cover a sidewalk.

  • One is 3.5 yards long.
  • Second is 25 percent longer than the first.

i.e. the length of the second strip is: 3.5+25% of 3.5

i.e.

Length of second strip= 3.5+0.25×3.5

i.e.

Length of second strip= 4.375 yards

  • Also, the third is 6 1/4 yards long.

i.e. The length of third strip is:

6\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{25}{4}\ yards=6.25\ yards

Hence, the total length of three carpets is:

  3.5+4.375+6.25= 14.125 yards.

So basically you would take you your m which is 339 degrees greater than 3 so you would divide 339 by 3 and get 113 so your m= 113 degrees so for example the first question would be m<1 = 113 and so on so you would multiply 113 by the number it is greater than

Find the Equation of the Parallel Line
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

y = 2/5x + 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the slope of the equation: y = 2/5x – 1/2

The slope of the above equation can be obtained as follow:

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope.

c is the y-intercept.

y and x are the coordinate.

Comparing:

y = 2/5x – 1/2 with y = mx + c

The slope of y = 2/5x – 1/2 is 2/5.

Now, let us determine the equation parallel to y = 2/5x – 1/2.

This is illustrated below:

The coordinate of the line => (–7, 2)

x1 = –7

y1 = 2

Slope (m) = 2/5 => Since the lines are parallel, their slope are equal.

y – y1 = m (x – x1)

y – 2 = 2/5(x – –7)

y – 2 = 2/5(x + 7)

Clear bracket

y – 2 = 2/5x + 14/5

Rearrange

y = 2/5x + 14/5 + 2

y = 2/5x + 4/5

Therefore, the equation is:

y = 2/5x + 4/5
