Answer:

Perimeter of the triangle=16 \frac{2}{3} feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>A triangle has 3 sides that measure 5 1/4 feet, 2 5/6 feet, and 8 7/12 feet what is the perimeter of the triangle ?</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

To find the perimeter of the triangle, we will add the measure of all the 3 sides.

Perimeter of the triangle =5 1/4 +2 5/6 +8 7/12

For easy addition, we will change all the mixed fraction to an improper fraction

5 1/4= \frac{21}{4}

2 5/6 =\frac{17}{6}

8 7/12 =\frac{103}{12}

Perimeter of the triangle =5 1/4 +2 5/6 +8 7/12

                                          = \frac{21}{4}   +  \frac{17}{6}   +   \frac{103}{12}

                                         =\frac{63 +34 +103 }{12}

                                       

                                          =\frac{200}{12}

                   

Perimeter of the triangle  =    \frac{200}{12}

This fraction can be reduce to its lowest term;  200÷4   /   12÷4

                                                                                =50/3

Perimeter of the triangle=\frac{50}{3}

                                         =16 \frac{2}{3}

Perimeter of the triangle=16 \frac{2}{3}  feet

Perimeter = add up the sides

P = 5 1/4 + 2 5/6 + 8 7/12

need to get a common denominator of 12

5 1/4*3/3 = 5 3/12

2 5/6*2/2 = 2 10/12

8 7/12

P = 5 3/12+ 2 10/12 + 8 7/12

P = (5+2+8)+(3+10+7)/12

P=15 (20/12)

P =15 + 1 8/12

P = 16 2/3 ft

Can somebody please help me with question b please?
snow_tiger [21]
\bf A=&#10;\begin{bmatrix}&#10;-2&0\\1&3&#10;\end{bmatrix}\qquad B=&#10;\begin{bmatrix}&#10;1&0&3\\-1&3&0&#10;\end{bmatrix}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;AB=&#10;\begin{bmatrix}&#10;(-2\cdot 1)+(0\cdot -1)&(-2\cdot 0)+(0\cdot 3)&(-2\cdot 3)+(0\cdot 0)\\\\&#10;(1\cdot 1)+(3\cdot -1)&(1\cdot 0)+(3\cdot 3)&(1\cdot 3)+(3\cdot 0)&#10;\end{bmatrix}

as you notice above, is the first-row components from A, multiplying all the columns subsequently on B, and you add the products of that row, that gives you one component on the AB matrix

in the one above, we end up with a 2x3 AB matrix

You are purchasing books summer reading for $4.50 each. Part A: Your total cost, C, depends on,The input is,and the output is,Pa
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Part A) see the explanation

Part B) C(12)=\$54

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and C, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form k=\frac{C}{x} or C=kx

Let

C ---> is the total cost (represent the output or dependent variable)

x ----> is the number of books (represent the input or independent variable)

In this problem

we have a proportional relationship between the variables x and C

Part B)  we know that

The linear equation is given by

C=kx

The constant of proportionality k is the same that the slope or unit rate of the linear equation

In this problem the constant k is given

k=\$4.50\ per\ book

so

C=4.50x

For x=12 books

substitute in the equation and solve for C

C=4.50(12)=\$54

In function notation

C(12)=\$54
