Answer:

33.94 cms of ribbon

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you need two diagonals to form the x, therefore the amount  of ribbon needed is the sum of the distance of both diagonals.

When crossing the diagonal, a rectangular angle is formed, where the diagonal would be the hypotenuse, we know that the distance of the hypotenuse can be calculated by means of the legs, which we know its value (12):

d ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2

a = b = 12

d ^ 2 = 12 ^ 2 + 12 ^ 2

d ^ 2 = 288

d = 288 ^ (1/2)

d = 16.97

16.97 cm is what it measures, a diagonal, therefore tape is needed:

16.97 * 2 = 33.94

A total of 33.94 cms of ribbon is needed

A members-only speaker series allows people to join for $28 and then pay $4 for every event attended. What is the total cost for
wariber [46]

Given:

Joining fee = $28

Fee of each event = $4

To find:

Total cost for someone to attend 4 events.

Solution:

Let the number of events be x and total fee be y.

Fee for 1 event = $4

Fee for x events = $4x

Joining fee remains constant. So, the total fee is

y=28+4x

Substitute x=4 in this equation.

y=28+4(4)

y=28+16

y=44

Therefore, total cost of 4 events is $44.
