Hello! For this question, we will have to subtract fractions. In order to do this, we will have to convert the fractions into the same denominator. We do this by finding the LCD of the two numbers. In other words, we find the LCM. The LCM of 5 and 4 is 20. 4/5 converts to 16/20, and 1/4 converts to 5/20. Let's subtract these numbers like we would regular numbers. 6 16/20 - 3 5/20 is 3 11/20. There. Jordan bought 3 11/20 yards more pink ribbon than purple ribbon.
Answer:
2m
Step-by-step explanation:
(m+3) (m-1)
We need to FOIL
first m*m = m^2
outer -1*m = -m
inner = 3m
last 3*-1 = -3
Add these together
m^2 -m +3m -3
m^2 +2m -3
Like XZ divides the cord YV into two congruent parts (YW=5.27 cm=WV), this segment XZ must be perpendicular to the segment YV, then the angle XWY in triangle XWY is a right angle (90°) and the triangle XWY is a right angle.
We can apply the trigonometric ratios in triangle XWY:
Hypotenure: XY
sin 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°)/(hypothenuse)
sin 44°=YW/XY
sin 44°=(5.27 cm)/XY
Solving for XY. Cross multiplication:
sin44° XY=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by sin 44°:
sin 44° XY / sin 44° = (5.27 cm)/sin 44°
XY=(5.27/sin 44°) cm
XY=(5.27/0.694658370) cm
XY=7.586462929 cm
This value XY is the radius of the circle, then:
XZ=XY→XZ=7.586462969 cm
tan 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°) / (Adjacent leg to 44°)
tan 44°=YW/XW
tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/XW
Solving for XW. Cross multiplication:
tan 44° XW=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by tan 44°:
tan 44° XW / tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/tan 44°
XW=(5.27/tan 44°) cm
XW=(5.27/0.965688775) cm
XW=5.457244753 cm
WZ=XZ-XW
WZ=7.586462969 cm-5.457244753 cm
WZ=2.129218216 cm
Rounded to 2 decimal places:
WZ=2.13 cm
Answer: The <span>measurement is closest to the measure of segment WZ is
2.13 cm</span>
To find the perimeter you do length + width so you do 12.4 + 5.9 to get the perimeter.
