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

Triangle ABC is equilateral. Find the height of BD
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

C) 4√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is an equilateral triangle. BD is angle bisector.

Triangle BCD is a 30-60-90 degree triangle in the ration of 1:√3:2

Here we are given BC, that is highest length of the side.

So 2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4.

BD = √3 x

Now plug in x =4, we get

Height (BD) = 4√3

Thank you.

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $16
Trava [24]
We can write two equations for this. x = each minute of calls

Plan A = .1x + 16
Plan B = .14x

Make the two equations equal each other, so we can find when they are the same.

.1x + 16 = .14x

Subtract .1x from both sides

16 = 0.04x

Divide by 0.04 to get x by itself

400 = x.

Earlier, we set x as each minute of calls. This means that after 400 calls, Plan A and Plan B will cost the same.

To find the cost, substitute 400 into both equations by themselves.

Plan A cost = .1x + 16
Plan A cost = .1(400) + 16
Plan A cost = 40 + 16
Plan A cost = $56

Plan B cost = .14x
Plan B cost = .14(400)
Plan B cost =  $56

Final answer: After 400 calls, Plan A and Plan B will both cost $56.
