Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.
The length of baseboard needed is AB + BC + CD + DE + FE.
Note that 30 in = 30/12 ft = 2.5 ft.
Because of the door opening,
AB + EF = 12 - 2.5 = 9.5 ft
Also,
BC = DE = 10 ft
CD = 12 ft.
The amount of baseboard needed is
AB + BC + CD + DE + FE
= (AB + EF) + BC + CD + DE
= 9.5 + 10 + 12 + 10
= 41.5 ft
Answer:
41.5 feet of baseboard.
I do not see any illustrations, but repeated subtraction is the exact same as division.
I hope this answer was useful, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.
Distributive property
a(b+c)+ab+ac
a(b-c)=ab-ac
(6z^2-4z+1)(8-3z)
move for nicety
(8-3z)(6z^2-4z+1)
distribute
8(6z^2-4z+1)-3z(6z^2-4z+1)=
48z^2-32z+8-18z^3+12z^2-3z=
-18z^3+48z^2+12z^2-32z-3z+8=
-18z^3+60z-35z+8
Step by step explanation: -28-15
When adding negative with positive it will always be negative so for this question, subtract -28 with 15 which would be -43. So -43 would be the temperature in the evening.
The Pythagorean theorem applies to the sides of this right triangle.
... x² + (4/7)² = (5/7)²
... x² = 25/49 -16/49
... x = √(9/49)
... x = 3/7
The unknown side has length 3/7.
_____
You might recognize that this is a 3-4-5 right triangle with a scale factor of 1/7.
