Answer:

3 1/4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 of 9 3/4

change 9 3/4 into an improper fraction → 39/3

1/4 x 39/3 = 39/12

convert back to a mixed number by dividing 12 into 39

which goes in three times with a remainder of 3 → 3 3/12

however, 3/12 can be simplified to equal 1/4

A museum groundskeeper is creating a semicircular statuary garden with a diameter of 29 feet. There will be a fence around the g

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The fence will cost $330.09

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to calculate the perimeter of the semicircle for that we use the following formula:

d = diameter = 29ft

s = perimeter of semicircle

π = 3.14

s = d * 1/2 * π

we replace the values that we know

s = 29ft * 1/2 * 3.14

s = 45.53ft

Now we multiply the number of feet by the price of 1 foot of fence

45.53 * $7.25 = 330.0925

Rounding to the nearest hundredth

$330.0925 = $330.09

Diego is making a large mural. He draws a hexagon with a perimeter of 10.5 meters. Each side of the hexagon is the same length.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Part A: 6a = 10.5 and a = 1.75 meters.

Part B: $3.87.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Diego draws a hexagon with a perimeter of 10.5 meters and each side of the hexagon is the same length.

Now, the hexagon has 6 sides and if each side is of length 'a' meters, then the equation that models the situation is

6a = 10.5 ......... (1) (Answer)

⇒ a = 1.75 meters. (Answer)

Part B:

The total cost of supplies to paint the mural is $38.70. Diego and 9 friends divide the cost equally.

Hence, the total cost will be divided into 10 persons.

Therefore, each person will get $\frac{38.70}{10} = 3.87$ dollars. (Answer)
