Given: Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon. Nailah bought 5 pieces of ribbon. Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon.
To find: Who can buy which ribbon
Solution:
Ribbon Sizes
1 2/3 = 5/3 yard
4/5 yard
3 1/2 = 7/2 Yard
Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon
Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon
=> 3 * 5/3 = 5
3 * 4/5 = 2.4
3 * 7/2 = 10.5
Nailah bought 5 pieces of ribbon
=> 5 * 5/3 = 8.33
5 * 4/5 = 4
5 * 7 /2 = 17.5
Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon
=> 6 * 5/3 = 10
6 * 4/5 = 4.8
6 * 7 /2 = 21
Only value between 7 & 9 is 5 * 5/3 = 8.33
hence Nailah only can buy 1 2/3 = 5/3 yard ribbon
or there is some mistake in the data
Answer:
15.59
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 15.59 because to find the area of an equilateral triangle, you need to multiply the height by the length. In this scenario, the length is 6, and we need to find the height. Since we know that all of the sides of the equilateral triangle are 6, we can put a line dividing the equilateral triangle exactly in half as our height. This will form 2 triangles, and each of them will have a length of 3, and a slant height of 6. They would also be right triangles. Now, with this information you can do pythageroum thereom to find the height:: 3^2 + h^2 = 6^2. So, h = √27. Now, to find the area of a triangle, you must multiply the length by the height and then divide by 2. So (6 • √27)/2 is equal to 15.5884572681, which rounded is equivalent to 15.59. So the answer is 15.59.
The correct answer is D
Hope this helps!
