Answer:
if 1/6 of a roll of paper covers 1/4 of a wall, this means that we will need 4/6 of a roll to cover a whole wall, now the question is asking how many rolls will we need to cover 4 walls, we already know that it takes 4/6 to fill one wall so if we add 4/6+4/6+4/6+4/6 we will get 16/6 or 2 4/6
we will need 16/6 or 2 4/6 of rolls of paper to cover 4 walls
Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
Answer:
150 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
100 batches x batches
------------------- = ---------------------
8 hours 12 hours
Using cross products
100 * 12 = 8x
1200 = 8x
Divide by 8
1200/8 = 8x/8
150 = x
Answer:
x = 19.6
Step-by-step explanation:
By applying cosine rule in ΔBCD,
cos(30)° = 
= 
BC = 
Now, by applying sine rule in ΔBAC,
sin(45)° = 
x = 
x = 19.59
x ≈ 19.6
