Answer:

<em>159 feet of fabric</em>

Step-by-step explanation

We are told that 1 curtain is 36inches long

Since 1 foot = 12inches

x foot = 36inches

Cross multiply;

12 * x = 36

12x = 36

x = 36/12

x = 3

Hence 36inches is same as 3 feet

If Charlotte's curtain company wants to make 53 curtains, the length of 53 curtain is expressed as;

1 curtain = 3feet

53 curtain = y

y = 53 *3

<em>y = 159 feet</em>

<em>Hence she will need 159 feet of fabric</em>

On a certain IQ test, eleven people averaged a 101.5. A certain reality TV star took
dem82 [27]

Answer:

59.98

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average of a set of numbers, we sum them all together and divide them by the size of the set. Here, we start out with 11 IQ scores. We don't know what they are, but we can still set up an equation with the information we do have. Let's call the sum of those 11 score <em>s</em>. The average must be s/11, which we know is 101.5. With that, we can set up and solve and equation for <em>s</em>:

\dfrac{s}{11}=101.5\\s=101.5(11)\\s=1116.5

Let's call the score of the reality TV star <em>r</em>. If we add their score to the set, we now have <em>12</em> scores. The sum of those scores is gonna be the sum of the previous scores, 1116.5, plus the reality TV star's score, r. To find the average, we divide the sum by 12. Finally, we're told that this average is exactly 98.04. Putting all of this into an equation gives us

\dfrac{1116.5+r}{12}=98.04

We can now solve for r algebraically, first by multiplying both sides by 12:

1116.5+r=98.04(12)\\1116.5+r=1176.48

And then subtracting 1116.5 from both sides:

r=1176.48-1116.5\\r=59.98

1) Given: circle k(O), ED= diameter ,m∠OEF=32°, m(arc)EF=(2x+10)° Find: x
qaws [65]

1. The major arc ED has measure 180 degrees since ED is a diameter of the circle. The measure of arc EF is (2x+10)^\circ, so the measure of arc DF is

m\widehat{DF}=360^\circ-180^\circ-(2x+10)^\circ=(170-2x)^\circ

The inscribed angle theorem tells us that the central angle subtended by arc DF, \angle DOF, has a measure of twice the measure of the inscribed angle DEF (which is the same angle OEF) so

m\angle DOF=2m\angle OEF=64^\circ

so the measure of arc DF is also 64 degrees. So we have

170-2x=64\implies106=2x\implies\boxed{x=53}

###

2. Arc FE and angle EOF have the same measure, 56 degrees. By the inscribed angle theorem,

m\angle EOF=2m\angle EDF\implies56^\circ=2m\angle EDF\implies m\angle EDF=28^\circ

Triangle DEF is isosceles because FD and ED have the same length, so angles EFD and DEF are congruent. Also, the sum of the interior angles of any triangle is 180 degrees. It follows that

m\angle EFD+m\angle EDF+m\angle DEF=180^\circ\implies\boxed{m\angle EFD=76^\circ}

Triangle OFE is also isosceles, so angles EFO and FEO are congruent. So we have

m\angle EFO+m\angle FEO+m\angle EOF=180^\circ\implies\boxed{m\angle EFO=62^\circ}
