Answer

864 in²

Step by step explanation

let's find the area of the kite.

Area of a kite=(1/2)*[d1*d2], where d1 and d2 are the diagonals

Area of the kite=(1/2)*[6*12]

Area of the kite 36 in²

The wall is 12 feet across. Convert 12 feet into inches

1 feet = 12 inches

12 feet =  12*12 = 144 in

Now find the number of kite to paint.

144/6 =  24 

Now let's find the number of square inches of the wall to be covered with

kites

24*area of the kite

= 24*36

= 864 square inches

Thank you.

the question does not present the picture, but this does not interfere with the resolution

step 1

Find the area of a kite

we know that

area of a kite=(1/2)*[d1*d2]

where d1 and d2 are the diagonals

so 

area of a kite=(1/2)*[6*12]-----> 36 in²

The wall is 12 feet across-----> convert to in-----> 12*12----> 144 in

step 2

find the number of kite to paint

divide across of the wall to across of a kite

144/6-----> 24 

step 3

find the number of square inches of the wall to be covered with comets

24*area of one kite-----> 24*36-----> 864 in²

the answer is 864 in²

Note For this calculation, as there is no drawing we have assumed that the diagonal of the 6-inch kite is horizontal

case b) 

If the diagonal of the 12-inch kite was horizontal, then the calculation would be

step 2

find the number of kite to paint

divide across of the wall to across of a kite

144/12-----> 12

step 3

find the number of square inches of the wall to be covered with comets

12*area of one kite-----> 12*36-----> 432 in²

the answer would be 432 in²

Without graphing is the system independent, dependent, or inconsistent?
rewona [7]
Y = -2 x - 9
3 x - 4(-2 x - 9 ) = -8
3 x + 8 x + 36 = - 8
11 x = - 44,   x = - 4 
y = 8 - 9 ,      y = -1
This is a unique solution, the system is independent.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

1.we know the perimeter of the triangle=x-3+x+6+x=3x+3

so,answer is (b)3x+3

2.area of the triangle=1/2*b*h

=1/2*x+2*2x+6=x+2*2x+6/2=2x^2+6x+4x+12/2=2x^2+10x+12/2=2(x^2+5x+6)/2=x^2+5x+6

so,answer is(b)x^2+5x+6

Mark and some of his friends had eaten pizzas. What is this written as a decimal?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

We don't really have the whole question, but to convert to a decimal, you should divide the numerator by the denominator.

Example:

Convert 5/8 to a decimal.

5 divided by 8 = 0.625
