11 1/2+6 4/5 equals? So, you have to make each fraction have the same denominator. So, you would notice that they have in LCD (least common denominator )which is 10. So you're new fractions are 11 5/10+ 6 8/10. 11+6=17. 5/10+8/20=13/10. Which simplified it would be 1 3/10. 17+1 3/10 equals 18 3/10. 18 3/10 -3 3/10 equals 15. 15 is the answer.

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

<em>159 feet of fabric</em>

Step-by-step explanation

We are told that 1 curtain is 36inches long

Since 1 foot = 12inches

x foot = 36inches

Cross multiply;

12 * x = 36

12x = 36

x = 36/12

x = 3

Hence 36inches is same as 3 feet

If Charlotte's curtain company wants to make 53 curtains, the length of 53 curtain is expressed as;

1 curtain = 3feet

53 curtain = y

y = 53 *3

<em>y = 159 feet</em>

<em>Hence she will need 159 feet of fabric</em>

What is the equation of the circle that has a center at (-3, 1) and a radius of 5? A) (x + 3)2 + (y - 1)2 = 5 B) (x - 3)2 + (y +
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of the equation of a circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius. This means that for the circle with center (-3,1) and radius 5 substitute into the vertex form these values. Substitute h = -3, k= 1, and r = 5. The equation becomes (x--3)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 5^2. This simplifies to (x+3)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 25. The solution is C.
