Answer:
The approximate total cost for the blanket is $10.08 ⇒ B
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L × W
The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(L + W)
where:
- L is the length of the rectangle
- W is the width of the rectangle
∵ The baby blanket shaped a rectangle
∵ The dimensions of the blanket are 3 feet and 5 feet
- Find the area of the blanket
∵ A = 3 × 5 = 15 feet²
- Change feet to yard because the cost is by square yard
∵ 1 foot = yard
∴ 1 foot² = yard²
∴ 15 feet² = 15 × =
yards²
∴ The area of the blanket is yards²
∵ The fabric cost of the blanket is $1.25 per square yard
∴ The fabric cost = × 1.25
∴ The fabric cost = 2.08333 dollars
∵ Heather is going to put a ribbon border around it
- The length of the ribbon is equal to the perimeter of the blanket
∵ P = 2(3 + 5) = 16 feet
∴ The length of the ribbon is 16 feet
∵ The cost of the ribbon is $0.5 per foot
∴ The cost of the ribbon = 16 × 0.5
∴ The cost of the ribbon = 8 dollars
Now add the fabric cost to the ribbon cost to find the total cost of the blanket
∵ The total cost = 2.08333 + 8
∴ The total cost = 10.08333
- Round it to the nearest cent
∴ The total cost = 10.08 dollars
The approximate total cost for the blanket is $10.08
First we need to find out the time it took for the truck to reach town B.
Now, because the van left 1.5 hours earlier and reached the destination 2.5 hours before, it took 1 hour less the the truck to arrive.
which is the time it took for the van to arrive.
Now we use the speed equation again to work out speed.
= speed of van
Hope this helped :)
