Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{20}\ \text{yards}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Renee has 1/4 yard of floral fabric.

She cuts it into 5 equal pieces.

We need to find the length of each new piece of fabric. It is equal to the total length divided by the total number of pieces. So,

$l=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{4}}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{20}\ \text{yards}$

So, each new piece pf fabric is $\dfrac{1}{20}\ \text{yards}$ .

Does anyone know the answer to this one?

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{a(x+4)(x-5)=0,\ a\in\mathbb{R}-\{0\}}\\\\\text{for}\ a=1\to\boxed{x^2-x-20=0}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{If}\ x_1\ \text{and}\ x_2\ \text{are the roots of the quadratic equation}\ ax^2+bx+c=0,\\\text{then}\ ax^2+bx+c=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2).\\\\\text{If}\ x_1\ \text{and}\ x_2\ \text{, then they are the roots of the quadratic equation.}\\\\\text{We have}\ x_1=-4\ \text{and}\ x_2=5.\ \text{Therefore we have the equation:}\\\\a(x-(-4))(x-5)=0\\\\a(x+4)(x-5)=0\qquad\text{for any value of}\ a\ \text{except 0}.$

Im so lost what the answer is

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Unfortunately, we can't do anything with 41 as it has no factors. Since $3\sqrt{41}$ is already simplified, try submitting that as your answer. If that doesn't work then try un-doing their steps and get rid of the 3:

$3\sqrt{41}$

$\sqrt{41(9)}$

$\sqrt{369}$

Hope this helps!
