I don't think you use a fraction. You multiply .6666 by 72 which equals 47.9952 or rounded 48. :)
Answer:
rc length = 10 * 8pi/5
= 16pi
This is the circumference of the base
(a) 2pir = 16pi where r = radius of base
2r = 16
r = 8 cm
(b) 10^2 = h^2 + 8^2
h^2 = 100 - 64
= 36
h = 6 cm
Usually, rugs have a rectangular shape, therefore the section of the living room that Patrick wants to cover is a rectangle.
The area of a rectangle can be found by multiplying the length and the width of the rectangle:
A = l × w
Hence, the most appropriate measurements Patrick should provide are the length and the width of the section of his living room he wants to cover.
<span>6x+7=6
Subtract both sides by 7
</span>6x+7-7=6-7
6x=-1
Divide both sides by 6 to isolate x
6x/6=-1/6
x=-1/6
