Answer: 38 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The beds have the same dimensions.

Then, to find the number of feet of fabric that Carrie will need to make skirts for both beds, you need to calculate the perimeter of one of them and multiply it by 2. After this, you can make the conversion from inches to feet.

The perimeter of a rectangle can be calculated with this formula:

P=2l+2w

Where "l" is the length and "w" is the width.

You know that the dimensions of each bed are:

l=75in\\w=39in

Then you can substitute these values into the formula:

P=2(75in)+2(39in)\\P=228in

Therefore,  the number of inches of fabric that Carrie will need to make skirts for both beds is:

P_{total}=2*228in=456in

Make the conversion from inches to feet.  Then, 456 inches to feet is:

(456in)(\frac{1ft}{12in})=38ft

ololo11 [35]
(1,2)(4,-1)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-1 - 2) / (4 - 1) = -3/3 = -1

the slope is -1......I am not sure of the mistake.....unless she just added (-1 - 2) and got 3 instead of -3.......or when dividing -3/3....she maybe forgot about the negative sign
