Answer:

4080 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

34 yards of ribbon are used to prepare 8 teddy bears. The yards of ribbon used to prepare 320 teddy bears are:

320 teddy bear × (34 yard/8 teddy bear) = 1360 yard

1 yard is equal to 3 feet. The feet corresponding to 1360 yards is:

1360 yard × (3 feet/1 yard) = 4080 feet

<u>Part 1)</u> Use the fact that there are 12 inches in a foot

a) How many inches tall is a 7 foot basketball player?

we know that

1 foot=12 inches

so by proportion

$\frac{12}{1} \frac{inches}{foot} =\frac{x}{7} \frac{inches}{feet} \\ \\x=12*7\\ \\x=84\ inches$

therefore

<u>the answer Part 1a) is</u>

$84\ inches$

Part b) If a yard is a 3 feet long, how many inches are in a yard?

we know that

1 yard=3 feet

1 foot=12 inches

so

Convert 3 feet to inches

by proportion

$\frac{12}{1} \frac{inches}{foot} =\frac{x}{3} \frac{inches}{feet} \\ \\x=12*3\\ \\x=36\ inches$

therefore

<u>the answer Part 1b) is</u>

$36\ inches$

<u>Part 2) </u>At the farmer's market two pounds of peaches cost $4.20 How much will five pounds cost?

by proportion

$\frac{4.20}{2} \frac{\$}{pounds} =\frac{x}{5} \frac{\$}{pounds} \\ \\2*x=4.2*5\\ \\x=4.2*5/2=\$10.5$

therefore

<u>the answer Part 2) is</u>

$\$10.5$

<u>Part 3) </u>Janice mother gave her a ten dollars bill to buy five pounds each of bananas and apples at the grocery store. When she got there she found that bananas were 80 c per pound and apples were $1.40 per pound.

Did Janice's mother give her enough money? If so, should she receive any change? If not, how much more money does she need?

we know that

<u>Find the cost of the bananas</u>

$5\ pounds*0.80\frac{\$}{pounds}=\$4$

<u>Find the cost of the apples</u>

$5\ pounds*1.40\frac{\$}{pounds}=\$7$

Sum the cost of the bananas and the cost of the apples

$\$4+\$7=\$11$

$\$11 > \$10$ ------> Janice's mother didn't give her enough money

She needs more money

She needs-------> $\$11-\$10=\$1$

therefore

<u>the answer part 3) is</u>

She needs $\$1$ more

-8x^2+4x+5=0 using quadratic formula

daser333 [38]

So you want to solve for x?

It would be nice if this would easily factor:
(-4x + 5)(2x +1) = 0    This will not work!

So you need to use the quadratic formula:
a = -8, b = 4, c = 5

$x = \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}$

x = (-4 +/- $\sqrt{16-4(-8)(5)}$ )/2(-8)
   = (-4 +/- $\sqrt{16 + 160}$ )/-16
   = (-4 + $\sqrt{176}$ )/-16
   = 1/4 - $\sqrt{11}$ /4

PLEASE HELP ME AND MY FRIEND NEED THIS QUESTION ANSWERED PLEASE HELP

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

$V_{cone} =65.94\: cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of cone (h) = 7 cm

Base radius (r) = 3 cm

Formula for Volume of cone is given as:

$V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

Plugging the values of h and r in the above formula, we find:

$V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3}(3.14) (3)^2(7)$

$\implies V_{cone} = \frac{1}{\cancel 3}(3.14) (\cancel 9)(7)$

$\implies V_{cone} = (3.14) (3)(7)$

$\implies V_{cone} =65.94\: cm^3$

Select the term that best describes the statement.. . All angles are right angles or a triangle has four sides.. 1) conjunction.

nydimaria [60]

The <u>correct answer</u> is:

2) disjunction.

Explanation:

A conjunction is when two statements are connected by "and." These are not, so this is not a conjunction.

A disjunction is when two statements are connected by "or." These are; this is a disjunction.

A negation is the opposite of a statement.

A conditional is an if-then statement.
