The  height of the bannerif Amira uses all of the blue paint is 2/3. Below is is the solution:

Area = h x w 
1 1/2 = h x 2 1/4
3/2 = h x 9/4 
h = 3/2 / 9/4 
h = 3/2 x 4/9
h = 2/3

we know that

the area of the rectangular banner is equal to

A=W*h

where

W is the wide of the banner

h is the height of the banner

in this problem

W=2\frac{1}{4} \ yards=\frac{(4*2+1)}{4} =\frac{9}{4} \ yards

A=1\frac{1}{2} \ yards^{2} =\frac{(1*2+1)}{2} =\frac{3}{2} \ yards^{2}

In the formula of the area solve for h

A=W*h\\ \\ h=\frac{A}{W}

Substitute the values of W and A

h=\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{9}{4}}  \\ \\ h=\frac{2}{3} \ yards

therefore

the answer is

the height of the banner is \frac{2}{3} \ yards

They are all addition, and they are all 0, and since 0 equals nothing, the sum is equivalent to 0!

What is the length of the interval of solutions to the inequality 1≤3-4x≤9?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer: -3 ≤ x ≤ -1

Step-by-step explanation:

1 ≤ 3 - 4x ≤ 9

1 + 3 ≤ - 4x ≤ 9 + 3; Add 3 on all sides

4 ≤ -4x ≤ 12

1 ≤ -x ≤ 3; Divide 4 on all sides

-1 ≥ x ≥ -3; Multiply -1 on all sides(FYI: When multiplying or dividing negative numbers in inequalities, make sure to reverse the signs as well)

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{4}{3}=1\dfrac{1}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

x-\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{5}{6}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 6}\\\\6x-6\!\!\!\!\diagup^2\cdot\left(\dfrac{2}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\right)+6\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{6\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\right)=6\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\right)\\\\6x-(2)(2)+1=5\\\\6x-4+1=5\\\\6x-3=5\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\6x=8\qquad\text{divide both sides by 6}\\\\x=\dfrac{8}{6}\\\\x=\dfrac{8:2}{6:2}\\\\x=\dfrac{4}{3}

Spencer made a quilt for his cousin's doll. The quilt had a 7x7 array of different color square patches. If each patch is 1 3/4
Damm [24]

Answer:

\frac{2401}{16} square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The quilt made by Spencer had a 7×7 array of different color square patches such that each patch is 1\frac{3}{4} in long.

To find: the area of the whole quilt

Solution:

Side of each quilt = 7(\frac{3}{4})=7(\frac{7}{4})=\frac{49}{4}

Quilt is in the form of a square such that area of square is given by (side)^2

Therefore, area of quilt = (side)^2=(\frac{49}{4})^2 =\frac{2401}{16}  square inches
