Answer:

The classes need to raise $164.86 more to reach their goal of $1200.

Step-by-step explanation:

$1,200 total

Mrs. LeBlanc's class has raised 50% of the total, so they've raised $600.

1200/2 = 600

Mr. Patel's class has raised $235.14.

235.14 + 600 = 835.14

Ms. Warner's class has raised 1/3 of the total of Mrs. LeBlanc's class ($600), so they've raised $200.

600/3 = 200

835.14 + 200 = 1035.14

The three classes have raised a combined total of $1035.14.

1200 - 1035.14 = 164.86

The classes need to raise $164.86 more to reach their goal of $1200.

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 1919 ft wide and 2727 ft long. She wants to leave a uniform strip of floor a

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The dimension of the rug would be 17 ft × 9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

length of the room = 27 ft.

width of the room = 19 ft.

suppose, she leaves a uniform strip of x ft. around the rug.

So,

The length of rug = (27-2x)ft.

Width of rug= (19-2x)ft.

∴ Area of the rug= length×width

$= (27-2x)(19-2x)$

$= 513-54x-38x+4x^2$

$= 513-92x+4x^2$

According to the question,

$513-92x+4x^2=153$

$513-92x+4x^2-153=0$ ( subtract 153 both sides)

$4x^2-92x+360=0$

$4(x^2-23x+90)=0$

$x^2-23x+90=0$

$x^2-(18+5)x+90=0$ ( Middle term splitting)

$x^2-18x-5x+90=0$

$x(x-18)-5(x-18)=0$

$(x-5)(x-18)=0$

$x-5=0$ or $x-18=0$ ( zero product property)

$x=5$ or $x=18$

if x=18, dimension would be negative ( Not possible)

Thus, x= 5

Hence,

length of rug= 27-10=17 ft.

width of rug= 19-10=9 ft.

How do I find the radius from the circumference of a circle

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Just remember to divide the diameter by two to get the radius. If you were asked to find the radius instead of the diameter, you would simply divide 7 feet by 2 because the radius is one-half the measure of the diameter. The radius of the circle is 3.5 feet.
