You are installing new carpeting in a family room. The room is rectangular with dimensions 20 1/2 feet × 13 1/8 feet. You intend

to install baseboards around the entire perimeter of the room except for a 3 1/2-foot opening into the kitchen. How many linear feet of board must you purchase?

Answer: 1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.

Aiden ran half as much on Tuesday than he did on Thursday how many miles did he run if Thursday was four thirds of a mile
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

0.75 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4/3 is equal to 1.5 or 1.50

2. Divide 1.5 into a half.

1 whole is equal to 0.5 or 0.50

3. Divide the 0.50 in 1.50

0.50 divided by 2 is equal to 0.25

4. Add 0.50 + 0.25

0.50 + 0.25 = 0.75

Find the equation for the plane through the points Po(3,-2,5), Qo(-3,-1,-5) and Ro(0,-4,4). The equation of the plane is:_______
ratelena [41]

Answer:

21x-24y-15z=36

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a plane is given a s

ax+by+cz=d

where a,b,c and d are  gotten from the vector product of the vector define by subtracting  one of the given points from the other two

Hence we define the vectors as follow  

<3,-2,5> - <-3,-1,-5> = <6,-1,10>

also <0,-4,4> - <-3,-1,-5>=<3,-3,9>

Next we need to carry out the cross product of the newly formed vector

<6,-1,10> X <3,-3,9> =<21,-24,-15>

The newly formed vector is in orthogonal to both vector and in  direction to the normal vector to the plane.

Since ax+by+cz=d  is the normal vector, we can conclude that

a=21, b=-24 c=-15

Hence we have

21x-24y-15z=d

if we plug in the point <-3,-1,-5> to solve for "d" we arrive at

21(-3)-24(-1)-15(-5)=36

Hence the final equation is

21x-24y-15z=36
