Answer:
43 stitches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that each pant's leg has an opening with a circumference of 8.5 inches. It took 15 stitches to make 3 inches in width. We are asked to find the number of stitches required to make up the circumference.
Let us find stitches needed to make 1 inch by dividing 15 by 3.


Since 5 stitches make 1 inch, so to find stitches needed to make 8.5 inches, we will multiply 8.5 by 5 as:


Upon rounding to nearest stitch, we will get:

Therefore, 43 stitches will make up the circumference.
Orders are a, b, c, lets write equations to represent the problem's info:
a + b = 150
b + c = 100
a + c = 150
so we have 3 unknowns and 3 equations, so we can solve.
<span>Use the first equation:
a + b = 150
</span>a = 150 - b
and substitute in the 3rd:
<span>a + c = 150
</span>150 - b + c = 150
then
b = c
and we can substitute that in the original equation:
<span>b + c = 100
</span>2b = 100
b = 50
c = 50
and substitute in the first equation:
<span>a + b = 150
</span>a = 150 - b = 150 - 50
a = 100
then a = 100, b = c = 50
Answer:
u = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
13 = 11+u
Subtract 11 from each side
13-11 = 11+u-11
2 = u
We have on the top of the figure one semircle, on the bottom of the figure another semicircle, to the left of the figure a line segment, and to the right of the figure another line segment, then we have a total of two semicircles and two line segments.
Answer: Fourth option: two semicircles and two line segments
