I estimate he can make around 12 such bowties, this is based off a year being 3 feet and therefore half a yard is 1 1/2 feet. So 12x 1 1/2=  12 12/2=6+12=18 all the fabric is used up.

Answer:12


Step-by-step explanation: we know that 1yard is 3 feet and the the tricky thing about this that the question is in yards and not in feet. So change the 18 feet into yards which will be 6 yards and 6÷1/2 will give you 12 bow ties

Rewrite the equation to isolate the variable.. df= g- 10 for d
ehidna [41]
Df = g - 10

To solve for d, divide both sides by f.

df / f = (g - 10) / f

d = (g - 10) / f

I hope this explains it.

In a manufacturing plant that produces new computers, a 0.15 probability exists that a computer will be defective. if five compu
Sindrei [870]

The probability that all of them will be defective is 0.0000759375

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

The general <u>Binomial Probability</u> formula is....

P= ^nC_{r}*p^r*(1-p)^n^-^r, where p is the probability of success, n is the total number of trials and r is the desired numbers of trials.

Given, the probability that a computer will be defective is 0.15 , so p = 0.15

Five computers are manufactured and we need to find the probability that all of them will be defective. That means, n = 5 and r = 5

Now according to the above formula....

P= ^5C_{5}*(0.15)^5*(1-0.15)^5^-^5 \\ \\ P= 1*(0.15)^5* (0.85)^0\\ \\ P=(0.15)^5 =0.0000759375

So, the probability that all of them will be defective is 0.0000759375

A parabola has zeros at (5,0) and (-3,0) and passes through point (6,18) determine the axis of symmetry
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The axis of symmetry is x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a vertical parabola, the axis of symmetry is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

In this problem we have a vertical parabola open upward

The x-coordinate of the vertex is equal to the midpoint between the zeros of the parabola

so

x=\frac{5-3}{2}=1

therefore

The axis of symmetry is x=1

The area of trapezoid TRAP is 100 m squared
Anastasy [175]
Answer:  30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
____________________

Area of a trapezoid, "A" = (1/2) ( b₁ + b₂) h ;
______________________________________________
or, write as:  A = ( b₁ + b₂) h  / 2 ;
___________________________________
in which:  A = area;
              b₁ = length of "base 1" (choose either one of the 2 (two bases);
              b₂ = length of "base 2" (use the base that is remaining);
              h = height of trapezoid;
____________________________________________
From the information given: 
___________________________
A = 100 m² ; 
h = 5 m
b₁ = 10 m
b₂ =  x 
___________________________
Find "x", which is:  "b₂" ;
__________________________
      A = ( b₁ + b₂) h  / 2  ;
_____________________________
Plug in our known values; and plug in "x" for "b₂" ; and solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
  100 m² = [(10m + x) (5m)] / 2  ; Solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
          (10m + x) (5m) = (2)* (100m²) ;
_________________________________________________________
             (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m² ;
___________________________________________
Note:  The distributive property of multiplication:
____________________________________________
    a(b+c) = ab + ac ;
 
    a(b−c) = ab <span>− ac ;
</span>____________________________________________

  We have:  (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m²  ;
____________________________________________
So:    (5m) (10m + x) =  (5m*10m) + (5m * x) ;
                           
                               =  50m² + (5m)x  ;
_______________________________________________
     →  50m² + (5m)x = 200m²  ; 
_______________________________________________
Divide the ENTIRE equation by "5m" ;
_______________________________________________
     → { 50m² + (5m)x } / 5m = (200m² / 5m) ;
_______________________________________________
     →  10m + x   = 40m ; 
________________________________________________
Now, subtract "10m" from EACH side of the equation; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
_______________________________________
     →  10m + x  − 10m  =  40m − 10m ;

to get:

                →    x  =  30 m  ; which is our answer.
___________________________________________________
Answer:  30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .
