Answer:

Making all of the stripes the same with means that we divide 15 yards by the 96 stripes:

15/96 = 0.15625 yards per stripe

There are 3 feet in every yard; this means that each stripe would be

0.15625(3) = 0.46875 foot

There are 12 inches in every foot; this means that each stripe would be

0.46875(12) = 5.625 inches

This is 5 5/8 inches per stripe.

Answer:

She should divide the length of the wall by the number of strips.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want each of our 96 stripes to be just wide enough so that all 96 of them cover the 15 yards long mural with no spaces left. To find the necessary width w of the stripes, we just need to divide the length of the wall by the number of stripes:

w=\frac{15yards}{96} =0.15625\:yards

This gives a width of 0.15625 yards for each stripe.

Explanation:

The reflection rule we use is

(x,y) \to (-x, y)

when we want to reflect over the y axis. The x coordinate flips from positive to negative, or vice versa, while the y coordinate stays the same.

Therefore, (1, -5) \to (-1, -5)
