Answer:

The number of costumes Scott makes is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the number of costume Scott makes be x.

As given

Scott is making costumes for a dance recital. He has 12 yards of purple fabric.

Each\ costume\ uses\ \frac{3}{4}\ yard\ of\ purple\ fabric.

Than the equation becomes

\frac{3\times x}{4} = 12

\frac{12\times 4}{3} = x

Simplify the above

4 \times 4 = x

x = 16

Therefore the number of costumes Scott make be 16 .

What is the solution of the given inequality?<br> -4(2x+1)&lt;_3(x-5)
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

x ≥ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the inequality by solving for x.

Solve:

-4(2x + 1) ≤ 3(x - 5)

Use the distributive property.

-8x - 4 ≤ 3(x - 5)

-8x - 4 ≤ 3x - 15

Subtract 3x from both sides.

-11x - 4 ≤ -15

Add 4 to both sides.

-11x ≤ -11

Divide both sides by -11, also flip the inequality since you're dividing by a negative number.

x ≥ 1

Your final answer would be x ≥ 1

What is the answer to this problem? Ignore the work. What is the correct answer?
yan [13]

Answer:

c = 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The legs of the triangle are a and b and the hypotenuse is c

Let a be the shorter leg

The hypotenuse is 5 more than the longest leg

c = b+5

The shortest leg is 20

a = 20

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

Substituting in what we know from above

20 ^2 + b^2 = (b+5)^2

FOIL  (b+5)^2 = b^2 +5b+5b +25 = b^2+10b+25

400 + b^2 = b^2+10b+25

Subtract b^2 from both sides

400+b&2-b^2 = b^2 -b^2 +10b+25

400 = 10b+25

Subtract 25 from both sides

400-25 = 10b+25-25

375 = 10b

Divide by 10

375/10 = 10b/10

37.5 = b

But we want to find c

c=b+5

c = 37.5+5

c = 42.5

A table with a round top is cut in half so that it can be used against a wall. After it is cut, the edge along the wall is 6 fee
andrew-mc [135]
The diameter is 6 feet, so the radius is 3 feet.  
The formula to solve for the areas of a circle is 
A = πr^2
So, A = (3.14)(3^2)
A = 28.26
Since the table is cut in half, divide the total answer by 2
A = 14.13

Would I have to subtract both numbers by 180? Helppp
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

B = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because all the angles in every triangle added together equals 180°, you would divide m∠CAB (62°) by 2, giving you 31°, then add the 99° to the 31°, and you have 130°, and just by looking at it, you can see that the ∠ABD =50°

Hope this helps :)
