For this case we assume that the photo album is rectangular in shape and therefore the fabric too. By definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:

A = a * b

Where:

a: It is the length of the rectangle

b: It is the width of the rectangle

According to the problem data we have to:

b =\frac {5}{8} \yard\\A = \frac {5} {16} \ yards ^ 2

Substituting:

\frac {5} {16} = a * \frac {5} {8}

We clear "a":

a = \frac {\frac {5} {16}} {\frac {5} {8}}\\a = \frac {5 * 8} {16 * 5}\\a = \frac {8} {16}\\a = \frac {1} {2}

Thus, the length of the fabric is \frac {1} {2} yards.

ANswer:

The length of the fabric is\frac {1} {2} yards.

A=lw
42xy^3=(14xy)l
isolate l
divide both sides by 14xy to isolate l
(42xy^3)/ (14xy)=14xy / 14xy *l
the 14xy in the right cancel out
now you have:
42xy^3/14xy=l
42/14= 3, now just do division of powers for xy
x-x =0x, y^3-y= y^2
therefore the answer is 3y^2

The area of a circle is 16π cm2. What is the circle's circumference?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

C = 8 pi cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by

A = pi r^2

16 pi = pi r^2

Divide each side by pi

16 = r^2

Taking the square root

4 = r

The circumference is

C = 2 * pi *r

C = 2* pi *(4)

C = 8 pi cm
