The factory makes 27 dresses.

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

  • It produces three dresses for every five shirts.
  • Let x be the sets of five shirts produced.
  • Therefore, x sets of three dresses are produced along with five shirts.

Total garments = number of shirts + number of dresses

⇒ 72 = 5x + 3x

⇒ 72 = 8x

⇒ x = 9

The number of dresses is 3x = 3(9) = 27 dresses.

A mirror is 24 inches high and 28 inches wide. The center of the mirror will hang 514 feet from the floor on a wall that is 8 fe
Vanyuwa [196]

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling once the mirror is hung on the wall is 21 inches

The dimension of the mirror is given as:

Height = 24\ in

Width = 28\ in

From the center of the mirror to the floor of the wall, the distance is:

Distance =5\frac14\ ft

So, the distance to the top of the mirror will be:

Top = 5\frac 14\ ft + \frac 12 \times Height

Substitute 24 for height

Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ \frac 12 \times 24\ in

Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ 12 \ in

Convert feet to inches

Top = 5\frac 14\times 12\ in+ 12 \ in

Top = 63\ in+ 12 \ in

Top = 75 \ in

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling is the difference between the height of the wall and 75 inches.

So, we have:

Distance = 8\ ft - 75\ in

Convert feet to inches

Distance = 8\times 12\ in - 75\ in

Distance = 96\ in - 75\ in

Distance = 21\ in

Hence, the distance is 21 inches
