Answer: Paula starts with 301.5 yarns.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line passing through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by:-

(y-b)=\dfrac{b-d}{a-c}(x-a)

Given: x=  number of square inches knitted on the scarf

y= number of yarns remaining on the ball of yarn

The equation of a line passing through (15, 300.2) and (26, 177.88):

(y-300.2)=\dfrac{26-15}{177.88-300.2}(x-15)\\\\\Rightarrow (y-300.2)=\dfrac{11}{-122.32}(x-15)\\\\\Rightarrow (y-300.2)=\dfrac{11}{-122.32}(x-15)

To find initial point, put x=0

y-300.2=-\dfrac{11}{122.32}(0-15)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-300.2=\dfrac{375}{278}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{375}{278}+300.2\\\\\Rightatrrow\ y=301.5  \ \ (approx)

Hence, Paula starts with 301.5 yarns.

A circular window is drawn on architectural plans where each unit is a foot on a coordinate grid. the window is modeled by the e
Pie

The equation indicates that the center of the window is 12 feet from the ground and the distance the window spans 6 feet.

<h3>What is the general equation of a circle?</h3>

The equation of a circle is given by the formula,

(x-a)^{2} + (y -b)^{2} = r^{2}

where (a,b) is the coordinate of the center of the circle, and r is the radius of the circle.

According to the given equation, if we compare this equation with the general equation of the circle.

(x-4)^{2} + (y-12)^{2} = 9

(x-a)^{2} + (y -b)^{2} = r^{2}

(x-4)^{2} + (y -9)^{2} = 3^{2}

On  observing this equation we will get that the value of (a,b) is (4,12).

Thus, The equation indicates that the center of the window is 12 feet from the ground

window span = diameter of circle

window span = 2r

= 2 × 3 (radius = 3)

= 6

Hence, The equation indicates that the center of the window is 12 feet from the ground and the distance the window spans 6 feet.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

- 4m - 2r - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

-8m + (-15) + 4m - 2r - 10

- 8m - 15 + 4m - 2r - 10

collect the like terms beginning with the positives

4m - 8m - 2r - 10 - 15

- 4m - 2r - 25

I REALLY NEED HELP FAST I WILL GIVE BRAINLYEST
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

In common scientific notation, any nonzero quantity can be expressed in two parts: sufficient whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10, and a power of 10 by which the coefficient is multiplied. In some writings, the coefficients are closer to zero by one order of magnitude. In this scheme, any nonzero quantity is expressed in two parts: a coefficient whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 0.1 but less than 1, and a power of 10 by which the coefficient is multiplied. The quantity zero is denoted as 0 unless precision is demanded, in which case the requisite number of significant digits are written out
