Answer:

x = 9.818

x≈10

The number of banners that can be made are 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the knowledge of proportion to solve this.

First we need to convert yard to feet.

  1  yard      = 3 foot

4 1/2 yard    = y

cross-multiply

y =  4 1/2  ×  3

    =9/2  ×   3

y = \frac{27}{2} feet

This implies 4 1/2 yards =  \frac{27}{2} feet

Let x be the numbers of banners needed to make from 4 1/2 yards of fabric.

1 3/8 feet  = 1 banner

\frac{27}{2}  feets    =    x

cross multiply

1 3/8 × x =  \frac{27}{2}

\frac{11x}{8}  =  \frac{27}{2}

cross-multiply

22x = 216

Divide both-side of the equation by 22

22x/22 = 216/22

x = 9.818

x≈10

The number of banners that can be made are 10

Answer:

8. The coordinates (0,0) represent the fact that when 0 minutes has passed, the horses have gone 0 miles because they hadn't started yet.

9. From the graph, it looks like horse A takes 4 minutes and horse B takes 2.5 minutes (aka 2 minutes and 30 seconds) to travel 1 mile.

10. For A: y = (1/4)x

For B: y = (2/5)x

11. For A: 3 miles

For B: (24/5) miles, or 4 and (4/5) miles.

12. Can't see the entire problem sorry.

Step-by-step explanation:

9. You find this by going to y=1 and look towards the right till you find the point the line intersects with y=1. Then find the x value by finding the corresponding number on the x axis.

10. A linear function will look something like this: y = mx+b, where y is the y value, x is the x value, m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept. Since both lines start from 0, you don't have to write the y-intercept since there's no point in writing +0. To find slope, you find delta y over delta x. Basically just find the difference of two y values and the difference of two x values from the same coordinate in the same order. I know that sounds really confusing but your teacher will probably teach this later on.

11. x represents the time, so just substitute x as 12 in the equation.

Help please its percents ! I need
harina [27]
X %  = x/100 as a fraction
so 0.75 % = 0.75 / 100  = 75/10000 or 0.0075

so 0.75% of 560  = 560 * 0.0075 = 4.2

I NEED AN ANWSER ASAP,, PLS AND THANK YOUU When finding a pattern for the sum of two times a number, n, and four less than three
Sonja [21]

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Two times a number, n that is, 2n

and four less than three times the same number, that is, 3n - 4

Cole is wrong for not interpreting the two statement differently into two separate expression.

Finding the sum of the two expression will be

2n + 3n - 4 = 5n - 4

So, if n = 2

Substitute 2 for n in the expression 5n -4

5(2) - 4

10 - 4 = 6
