Answer:

6 complete costumes

Step-by-step explanation:

he has 27/2 total fabric

1 costume requires 1 2/4 + 3/4 of fabric, which is 2 1/4

we divide 27/2 by 9/4

27/2 x 4/9 = 6

Why is it important to calculate the distance between two points on a cartesian coordinate plane?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Derived from the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance formula is used to find the distance between two points in the plane. The Pythagorean Theorem,

a

2

+

b

2

=

c

2

, is based on a right triangle where a and b are the lengths of the legs adjacent to the right angle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse. The relationship of sides

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

to side d is the same as that of sides a and b to side c. We use the absolute value symbol to indicate that the length is a positive number because the absolute value of any number is positive. (For example,

|

−

3

|

=

3

. ) The symbols

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

indicate that the lengths of the sides of the triangle are positive. To find the length c, take the square root of both sides of the Pythagorean Theorem.

c

=

a

b

c

=

√

a

b

It follows that the distance formula is given as

d

=

√

(

x

−

x

)

(

y

We do not have to use the absolute value symbols in this definition because any number squared is positive.

A GENERAL NOTE: THE DISTANCE FORMULA

Given endpoints

and

, the distance between two points is given by

Ariyonne claims (3,6) that is the point of intersection of the lines y=4x-2 and y=1/2x+5 Is she correct? How do you know?
yan [13]

Answer:

The point of intersection of the lines is  (2,6).

Thus, Ariyonne's claim is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations:

1) y=4x-2

2) y=\frac{1}{2}x+5

To find the point of intersection, we need to solve the given system of equations.

In order to solve the system we will use substitution method.

We will substitute value of y from first equation in the second equation and solve for x

So, we have

4x-2=\frac{1}{2}x+5

Multiplying both sides by 2 to remove fraction.

2\times(4x-2)=2\times(\frac{1}{2}x+5)

Using distribution.

8x-4=x+10

Subtracting both sides by x

8x-4-x=x+10-x

7x-4=10

Adding 4 to both sides.

7x-4+4=10+4

7x=14

Dividing both sides by 7.

\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{14}{7}

x=2

We can find value of y by plugging in x=2 in the first equation.

y=4(2)-2

y=8-2

y=6

So, the point of intersection of the lines is  (2,6).

Thus, Ariyonne's claim is incorrect.
