Abe needs 13.5 feet to make a bedspread. How many yards does he need?

Mathematics

riadik2000 [5.3K]3 years ago
6 0
4.5 is the answer because
first I took out the decimal which the new number is now 13
13÷3=4R1( I divided it by 3 because 1 yard=3 feet)
now the reminder is 1.5 which equals 18inches and 1 yard equals 36 inches
and now since 18 is 1/2 of 36
1/2 in decimal form is 0.5 or.5
so now the answer is 4.5

Create a real-life representation of the following multiplication problem. Explain what the result represents in the problem.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The real-life problem will be:- The total number of chocolates is 24 and there are 3 boxes what will be the number of chocolates filled in each box. The number of chocolates in each box will be 8.

<h3>What is an expression?</h3>

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

The given expression is:-

24\times \dfrac{1}{3} = 8

The real-life problem will be given the as:-The total number of chocolates is 24 and there are 3 boxes what will be the number of chocolates filled in each box. The number of chocolates in each box will be 8.

Hence the number of chocolates in each box will be 8.

How to find the smallest distance between two lines?
Lostsunrise [7]
Consider two lines in space `1 and `2 such that `1 passes through point P1 and is parallel to vector ~v1 and `2 passes through P2 and is parallel to ~v2. We want to compute the smallest distance D between the two lines.
If the two lines intersect, then it is clear that D = 0. If they do not intersect and are parallel, then D corresponds to the distance between point P2 and line `1 and is given by D = k−−−→ P1P2 ×~v1k k~v1k . Assume the lines are not parallel and do not intersect (skew lines) and let ~n = ~v1 ×~v2 be a vector perpendicular to both lines. The norm of the projection of vector −−−→ P1P2 over ~n will give us D, i.e., D = |−−−→ P1P2 ·~n| k~nk . Example Consider the two lines `1 : x = 0, y =−t, z = t and `2 : x = 1+2s, y = s, z =−3s. It is easy to see that the two lines are skew. Let P1 = (0,0,0), ~v1 = (0,−1,1), P2 = (1,0,0), and ~v2 = (2,1,−3). Then, −−−→ P1P2 = (1,0,0) and ~n = ~v1 ×~v2 = (2,2,2). We then get D = |−−−→ P1P2 ·~n| k~nk = 1 √3. Observe that the problem can also by solved with Calculus. Consider the problem of minimizing the Euclidean distance between two points on `1 and `2. Let Q1 = (x1,y1,z1) and Q2 = (x2,y2,z2) be arbitrary points on `1 and `2, and let F(s,t) = (x2 −x1)2 +(y2 −y1)2 +(z2 −z1)2 = (1+2s)2 +(s + t)2 +(−3s−t)2 = 14s2 +2t2 +8st +4s+1. Note that F(s,t) corresponds to the square of the Euclidean distance between Q1 and Q2. Let’s nd the critical points of F. Fs(s,t) = 28s+8t +4 = 0 Ft(s,t) = 4t +8s = 0 By solving the linear system, we nd that the unique critical point is (s0,t0) = (−1/3,2/3). Since the Hessian matrix of F, H =Fss Fst Fts Ftt=28 8 8 4, is positive denite, the critical point corresponds to the absolute minimum of F over all (s,t)∈R2. The minimal distance between the two lines is then D =pF(s0,t0) = 1 √3.

Use the diagram to solve for segments SW and WQ. Show your work and/or explain how you determined the answer
Minchanka [31]

The intersecting chords theorem states that whenever two chords intersect, the product of their pieces is constant.

So, in this case, we have

\overline{RW}\cdot\overline{WP}=\overline{SW}\cdot\overline{WQ}

Plugging your values, we have

8\cdot 9 = 6x \cdot 12x \iff 72=72x^2 \iff x^2=1

This equation has solutions x=\pm 1, but we can't choose x=-1, because it would lead to

\overline{SW}=-6,\quad\overline{WQ}=-12

So, the only feasible solutions is x=1

Bianca deposits $3,000 in a savings acct earning 4.25% simple interest per year.
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

$637.50

Step-by-step explanation:

P = $3000

t= 5years

r = 4.25% per annum

Interest = (p×r×t)/100

= (3000×4.25×5)/100

= $637.50
