Answer:

The fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the total piece of wood is of length 1.

It is provided that Talia used \frac{1}{3} of the piece of wood for the base of he project.

She use \frac{1}{4} of the piece of wood for the for the vertical support.

The remaining wood she used for horizontal support.

The amount of wood used for horizontal support can be computed by the subtracting the amount of wood used for base of the project and vertical support form 1.

Compute the amount of wood used for horizontal support as follows:

Horizontal\ support=1-Base\ of\ project-Vertical\ support\\= 1 - \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\\  =\frac{12-4-3}{12} \\=\frac{5}{12}

Thus, the fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.

What two numbers multiply to -50 and add up to -23
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = -23

xy = 50, so y = 50 /x

.

x + 50/x =-23,  x^2 +23x - 50 = (x-2)(x+25)

Can you help me with these two because I don't understand​
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer: 1: 34 units    2: 24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For figure 1, just split the area into squares and triangles and find the area of each. If you split figure 1 into 1 square and 3 triangles you get...

4x4= 16

(4x3)/2= 6

(4x4)/2= 8

(4x2)/2= 3

16+6+8+3 = 34

You do the same for figure 2, but use 4 triangles and 1 tiny square

1x1= 1

(4x3)/2= 6

(3x3)/2= 4.5

(4x4)/2= 8

(5x5)/2= 5

1+6+4.5+8+5= 24.5

You shouldn't need to worry about negative numbers because you are looking at the area

Calculate the perimeter of a rectangle which is 11 metres long and 4 metres wide
mote1985 [20]
To calculate the perimeter of a rectangle what you would do is add the parallel sides together so 11+11=22 and then 4+4=8 so we would add 22+8=30

So your answer would be 30
