Answer:

Matt will need 10176  square quilts to cover the wall

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this perfectly, we will have to first convert everything to the same unit.

dimensions of the quilt squares = 3 inches

Length of the wall = 1 yard = 36 inches

Breadth of the wall = 212 feet = 2544 inches.

The next step, is to find the area of the wall that Matt is covering.

Area of wall = length X breadth = 36 X 2544 = 91584in ^{2}

We will also find the area of the square quilts. This is given as length X length = 3^{2}=9 in^{2}

to get the number of square quilts that will cover that area, we will have to divide the area of the wall by the area of the quilts

= 91584 /9 = 10176 quilts

Matt will need 10176 quilts to cover the wall

Eight is added to a number and the sum is doubled, the result is -11 less than the number. Find
inna [77]
If you don’t know what a number is, you should substitute it for x and make an equation with the information you have been given. This gives:

(x + 8) x 2 = x - 11

Then, solve:

2x + 16 = x - 11

2x = x -27

x = -27

This can then be checked by using the number in the original text.

-27 + 8 = -19

-19 x 2 = -38

-38 is 11 less than -27.

Hope this helps :)

Which of the following would best represent a cosine function with an amplitude of 3, a period of pi/2 , and a midline at y = –4
Grace [21]
To transform the function f(x)= cos(x) to have the amplitude of 3, we need to multiply the constant 3 to the function f(x), so we have y=3f(x)

To transform the function f(x)=cos(x) to have the midline y=-4 we need to subtract f(x) by 4, so we have y=f(x)-4, 

To transform the function f(x)=cos(x) to have period of \frac{ \pi }{2}, we need to divide the original period 2 \pi by 4, so we have y=f(4x). Note that it is the 4x gives the effect of dividing the points on x-axes by 4 and the period is read on x-axes

Hence, the full transformation is given y=3f(4x)-4 which is the last option
