Answer: it will cost $50.4 to cover one-fourth of the garden with flowers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy’s garden is rectangular in shape and the formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

The dimensions of Amy’s rectangular garden are 15 feet by 12 feet. This means that the area of the garden would be

15 × 12 = 180 ft²

The area equivalent to one-fourth of the garden would be

1/4 × 180 = 45ft²

The flowers will cost $1.12 per square foot of ground covered. Therefore, the cost of covering one-fourth of the garden with flowers would be

45 × 1.12 = $50.4

Answer:

  $50.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The garden has an area of ...

  (15 ft)(12 ft) = 180 ft²

Amy wants to cover 1/4 of that with flowers, so the area devoted to flowers is ...

  (1/4)(180 ft²) = 45 ft²

The cost for each square foot is $1.12, so the cost of the flowers will be ...

  ($1.12/ft²) × 45 ft² = $50.40 . . . . cost to cover 1/4 of the garden with flowers

M∠Q = <br> m∠R = <br> m∠S = <br><br> 40 POINTS!!!!!!!
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

  ∠Q = 89°

  ∠R = 123°

  ∠S = 91°

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems easiest to start by finding the measures of each of the arcs. The measure of an arc is double the measure of the inscribed angle it subtends.

  arc QRS = 2·∠P = 114°

So, ...

  arc QR = arc QRS - arc RS = 114° -41° = 73°

The total of the arcs around the circle is 360°, so ...

  arc PQ = 360° -arc PS -arc QRS

  arc PQ = 360° -137° -114° = 109°

__

  ∠Q = (1/2)(arc RS + arc PS) = (1/2)(41° +137°)

  ∠Q = 89°

__

  ∠R = (1/2)(arc PS +arc PQ) = (1/2)(137° +109°)

  ∠R = 123°

__

  ∠S = (1/2)(arc PQ +arc QR) = (1/2)(109° +73°)

  ∠S = 91°

Mary is serving pizza at her party. Including her parents, there are 25 people. Each person will get two slices of pizza and a g
lianna [129]

Answer:

7 pizzas and 9 cans of juice

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 7 pizzas because if you add the 25 people plus her parents (That would be two more people) is 27. Then you have to multiply 27×2 that would equal 54. So, now you know you need 54 slices but what you is the amount of pizzas needed. The next step would be to divide 54÷8 that would equal 6.75 but you can't buy 6.75 pizzas, and you can't buy 6 pizzas because than you would leave people outside. You will need to buy 7 pizzas. It is better to have left overs than leaving people outside.

For the amount of cans would be 9 because if you add again 25 people plus her parents it would be 27. Then you multiply 27×1 that is obviously 27. The next step would be to divide 27÷3 and it would equal 9. And that is how you get your answer.
