You need to make a series of equations from what you are given first. I am going to use the first letter of each of the names to represent the length of that persons wire.
1/2s=2/5d
3c=s
s+d+c=6 ft
Okay. Now you can combine the first two equations knowing what s equals:
1/2(3c)=2/5d
d=15c/4
Now you have d=15c/4 and s=3c, so you can replace d and s in the third equation.
3c+15c/4+c=6
Then solve for c and plug it into the equation 3c=s to find the length of sarah's wire.
0.625
divide 5 by 8 is 0.625 rounded would be 0.63
x² + 5x - 6 can be expressed as (x + 6)(x - 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
circumference of a circle
2×pi×r
area of a circle
pi×r²
r (radius) = diameter/2 = 1.5ft
we shall assume pi to be 3.14
circumference is
2×3.14×1.5 = 3.14×3 = 9.42 ft
area is
3.14 × 1.5² = 3.14×2.25 = 7.065 ft²
