<h2><u>Solution :-</u></h2>

<h3><u>Given Information :-</u></h3>

<u>Length of the mirror Austen needs to buy ➢</u> 3 ft
<u>Width of the mirror Austen needs to buy ➢</u> 2 ft
<u>Cost of mirror per square foot ➢</u> $5.00

Total cost of the mirror Austen needs to buy.

<h3><u>Formula Used :-</u></h3>

Area of Mirror = Length × Width
Total cost of mirror = Area of mirror × Cost of mirror per square foot

<h3><u>Calculation :-</u></h3>

<u>Area of mirror :-</u>

<em><u>Substituting the values given in the 1st formula, We get, </u></em>

⇒ Area of mirror = ( 3 × 2 ) ft²

⇒ Area of mirror = 6 ft²

<u>Now finding the total cost of mirror,</u>

drek231 [11]

To solve this problem you need to do a proportion. First you do 15 over x= 75 over 100. Now you multiply 15 by 100 which is 1500. Next, you divide 1500 by 75. YOUR ANSWER IS 20 peaches. To check your work, you could divide 20 by 4 which is 5. 5 times 3= 15 peaches.

Answer

Find out the how much twine will he needs to pack 29 cartons today .

To proof

As given

uhammad, a shipping and receiving clerk, uses 1 yard, 2 feet, 4 inches of twine to wrap each carton he packs.

As given in the question

Convert the answer to larger units .

As between yard is the largest unit between yard, feet and inches.

$1 inches = \frac{1}{36} yard$

and

$1 feet = \frac{1}{3} yard$

Convert 2 feet into yard

$=\frac{2}{3}$

Convert 4 inches into yard

$= \frac{4}{36}$

twine to wrap each carton packs

$= 1 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{4}{36}$

L.C.M of (3 , 36) = 36

than the equation becomes

$=\frac{36 +2\times 12 + 4}{36}$

$= \frac{64}{36}$

=1.77777778 yard

Now twine to wrap pack 29 cartons = 29× 1.77777778

= 51.5555556 yard

Now twine to wrap pack 29 cartons is 51.55 yard ( approx)

Hence proved

For this problem what I did was add all the measurements and I got 48 m. However, it is wrong. How do I go about solving the per

Answer:

66 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the measures of <em>all</em> of the sides. There are two side measures that are missing from the diagram.

The missing horizontal measure is ...

17 m - 8 m = 9 m

The missing vertical measure is ...

16m -7 m = 9 m.

If you add these to the sum you already calculated, you will get the correct answer:

48 m + 9 m + 9 m = 66 m . . . perimeter of the figure

_____

If you're paying attention, you see that the sum of the measures of the two shorter horizontal segments is the same as the measure of the longer horizontal segment. Likewise, the sum of the measurements of the two shorter vertical segments is the same as that of the longer vertical segment.

In other words, the perimeter of this (and any) L-shaped figure is the same as the perimeter of a rectangle having the same horizontal and vertical dimensions as the long sides of the figure.

P = 2(17 m +16 m) = 2(33 m) = 66 m
