Answer:

7\frac{1}{3} feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Robin needed 3 2/3 feet of thread to finish a pillow she was making. We are asked to find the length of thread, if she has 2 times as much as thread as she needs.

First of all, we will convert 3\frac{2}{3} into improper fraction as:

3\frac{2}{3}\rightarrow \frac{3*3+2}{3}=\frac{9+2}{3}=\frac{11}{3}

Two times the length of thread would be:

2\times\frac{11}{3}

\frac{2\times11}{3}

\frac{22}{3}

\frac{3*7+1}{3}

7\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, Robin had 7\frac{1}{3} feet of thread.

The coordinate plane below represents a city. Points A through F are schools in the city.
Usimov [2.4K]
Part A. The technique on how to find the equation that only applies to point D and E, is to create a line or curve that only includes two of these points. In this case, I created a random parabola that isolates points C and F from the rest of the points. First, we have to find the equation of the parabola through its general forms:

(x - h)² = +/-4a(y-k)      or    (y - k)² = +/-4a(x - h)

For parabolas drawn like that in the picture, the general form is (x - h)² = +4a(y-k), where the vertex is (h,k) and a is the distance from the vertex to the focus. From the picture, the vertex is at (0,3). Then, we use point D(-2,4) to determine a:

(-2 - 0)² = +4a(4 - 3)
4a = 4

So, the equation of the parabola is:

x² = 4(y - 3)
x² = 4y - 12

Part B. Point D was already verified above. Now for point E(2,4)
x² = 4y - 12
2² ? 4(4) - 12
4 ? 4
4 = 4

Part C. For y < 7x − 4, ignore the equality symbol first and graph the line. Assign random values of x, then you get corresponding values of y. Plot them as shown in the second picture. The line is shown in red. Next, test the equation by choosing a random point. Let's choose the purple point at (4,3).

3 ? 7(4) − 4
3 ? 24
3 < 24

Thus, it applies to the purple point, and all the other areas to that area. The shaded region are all solutions of the inequality. So, Erica is only interested in points E, C and F.

The measure of an angle's supplement is 44 less than the measure of the angle.
Luden [163]

Answer:

< 1 = 112 degrees

< 2 = 68 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

< 1 = x

< 2 = x - 44

x + x - 44 = 180

2x = 180 + 44

x = 224/2

x = 112

When comparing the functions which conclusion can be made
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Probably the one you have selected.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a bad question because the domain of f(x) is not restricted, but the domain of its inverse is restricted to x >= 4. I would say you guessed correctly.
