The students in art class have blue cloth that's 60 inches long, glod cloth that is 48 inches long, and white cloth that is 72 inches long. They want to cut all the cloth into pieces of equal lenght for a project.
What is the greatest lenght of the pieces without having any cloth leftover? explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer 1

Length of blue cloth is 60 inches , length of gold cloth is 48 inches and length of white cloth is 72 inches are  greatest lenght of the pieces by greatest common factor.

What does "largest common factor" mean?

A group of numbers' greatest common factor (GCF) is the biggest factor that all the numbers have in common. For instance, the numbers 12, 20, and 24 share the components 2 and 4. Since four is the largest, we refer to the GCF of 12, 20, and 24 as four.

a.  As, the length of all pieces are equal, so for getting the greatest possible length of the pieces, we need to find GCF(greatest common factor) of 60, 48 and 72.

First we will factor out all three numbers completely

60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5

48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 ×3

72 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

The common factors are: 2, 2 and 3

Thus the GCF = 2 × 2 × 3  = 12

So, the greatest possible length of the pieces without having any cloth left over will be 12 inches.

b.  For finding the number of pieces for each color cloth, we will just divide the length of each cloth by 12. So

Number of pieces for blue cloth = 60/12 = 5

Number of pieces for gold cloth = 48/12 = 3

Number of pieces for white cloth = 72/12= 6

What did lambert call the difference between the angle-sum of a triangle and 180 degrees?

Answers

Lambert calls the difference between the angle-sum of a triangle and 180 degrees the defect.

Who is Lambert?Johann Heinrich Lambert (26 or 28 August 1728 – 25 September 1777) was a polymath from the Republic of Mulhouse, generally referred to as either Swiss or French, who made significant contributions to mathematics, physics (particularly optics), philosophy, astronomy, and map projections. Lambert pioneered the use of hyperbolic functions in trigonometry. He also proposed theories about non-Euclidean space. Lambert is credited with being the first to demonstrate that is irrational by employing a generalized continued fraction for the function tan x. Euler believed the conjecture but was unable to prove it was irrational, and it is speculated that Aryabhata believed it as well in 500 CE. Lambert also developed theorems about conic sections that simplified the calculation of comet orbits.Lambert refers to the defect as the difference between the angle-sum of a triangle and 180 degrees.

Therefore, Lambert calls the difference between the angle-sum of a triangle and 180 degrees the defect.

B ABCD is a parallelogram and angle A< 90°. The height through the vertex D intersects the diagonal AC at point M. The height through vertex B intersects the diagonal AC at point N. Prove that MBND is a parallelogram.

Answers

MBND is a parallelogram as BN=MD and BN║MD.

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose both pair of opposite side are equal and parallel. Few examples of parallelograms are square, Rhombus  and rectangle.

Given ABCD is a parallelogram and ∠A=90°

Now we have to prove that MBND is a parallelogram

Given BN⊥AC and DM⊥AC

Since BN and DM are both perpendicular to the same straight line AC then we cam say that BN║DM.

Again we know  from the properties of parallelogram that the diagonal divides a parallelogram into two equal triangles.

Therefore the diagonal AC divides the parallelogram into two equal triangles ΔABC and ΔADC.

Now we know that the area of a triangle is given by [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ×base ×height .

Area of  ΔABC =Area of ΔADC

Since BN⊥AC and DM⊥AC

∴[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]×BN×AC=[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]×DM×AC

This above equation can be simplified as

BN=MD

Hence BMND is a parallelogram as we know from the properties of parallelogram that when a pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel in a quadrilateral it is a parallelogram.

If Kevin has a total of 81 hours of service, how many weeks has he volunteered?​

Answers

If Kevin has a total of 81 hours of service, then he volunteered for 0.48 weeks.

As per the question statement, Kevin served as a volunteer for 81 hours.

We are required to find out the number of weeks, he volunteered his service.

To solve this question, we just need to know that a week consists of how many hours ?

We can proceed with the facts that a week consists of 7 days and each day consists of 24 hours. Therefore, a week consists of [tex](24*7)=168[/tex] hours, of which, Kevin volunteered for 81 hours.

Therefore, as per the unitary method, we get that,

168 hours make 1 week, then

1 hour makes [tex](\frac{1}{168})[/tex] weeks, and

81 hours make [tex](\frac{81}{168})=0.48[/tex] weeks approximately.

Answers

Answer:

x = 1 and x = -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x² -5x + 2

-2x² -5x + 2 = -5

which means y = -5

Draw the line on y = -5 like the green line in the attached file

and see where this line intersects with the graph

the values are:

x = 1 and x = -3.5

Answer:

Draw a line at y = -5.

x ≈ -3.5

x ≈ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

[tex]y = -2x^2 - 5x + 2[/tex]

This is the equation of the graphed parabola.

To solve the equation  [tex]-2x^2 - 5x + 2 = -5[/tex]  draw a line at y = -5 and find the points of intersection of the two graphed equations.

From inspection of the graph, the x-values of the points of intersection are:

x ≈ -3.5x ≈ 1

Solving algebraically

Add 5 to both sides of the equation:

[tex]\implies -2x^2-5x+2+5=-5+5[/tex]

[tex]\implies -2x^2-5x+7=0[/tex]

Factor out -1 from the left side:

[tex]\implies -1(2x^2+5x-7)=0[/tex]

Divide both sides by -1:

[tex]\implies 2x^2+5x-7=0[/tex]

Find two numbers that multiply to -14 and sum to 5:  7 and -2

Rewrite b as the sum of these two numbers:

[tex]\implies 2x^2+7x-2x-7=0[/tex]

Factor the first two terms and the last two terms separately:

[tex]\implies x(2x+7)-1(2x+7)=0[/tex]

Factor out the common term (2x + 7):

[tex]\implies (x-1)(2x+7)=0[/tex]

Apply the zero-product property:

[tex](x-1)=0 \implies x=1[/tex]

[tex](2x+7)=0 \implies x=-\dfrac{7}{2}=-3.5[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

a = 10/3 and b = -196/51.

Step-by-step explanation:

4a + 2b - 12ax + 15b = -40x - 52

Equating coefficients of x:

-12ax = -40x

-12a = -40

a = 40/12

  = 10/3.

Equating constants:

4a + 2b + 15b = -52

4a + 17b = -52

Substituting a = 10/3:

40/3 + 17b = -52

17b = -52 - 40/3

b = (-52 - 40/3) / 17

  = (-156/ 3 - 40/3) / 17

  = -196 / 51

The value of x is 108. If the mean of the data set 100, 122, 107, 115, 107, x is 108.

According to the given question.

We have a data set 100, 122, 105, 115, 107, x .

Also, the mean of the data set is 108.

As we know that, mean is the average of the given numbers and is calculated by dividing the sum of given numbers by the total number of numbers.

Therefore, the mean of the data set 100, 122, 105, 115, 107, x is given by

Mean = [100 + 122 + 107 + 115+ 107 + x]/6

⇒ 108  × 6 = (551 + x)

⇒ 648  = 551 + x

⇒ x = 648 - 551

We need to find the area of a triangle ABC.

What is the area of a triangle?

The area of a triangle is defined as the total space occupied by the three sides of a triangle in a 2-dimensional plane. The basic formula for the area of a triangle is equal to half the product of its base and height, i.e., A = 1/2 × b × h.

The base of the triangle = |5-1|=4

From vertices, A(4, 3) to the base the distance is 2 units at the vertice (4, 1)

So, the height of the triangle = 2 units

Now, the area of a triangle ABC = 1/2 × 4 × 2 = 4 square units.

In the given solution the height of a triangle is wrongly calculated.

Profit means, if the selling price of a product is more than its cost price, there is a profit earned in the transaction.

So, it can be calculated as,

Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price

The formulas for profit percentage is,

Profit percentage(P%) = (Profit /Cost Price) × 100

Given,

Here we need to find the profit percentage, If a lawnmower has a cost price of $2500 and was sold for $2895.

Based on the question,

We know that,

Cost Price = $2500

Selling Price = $2895

So, the profit is,

profit = $2895 - $2500

profit = $395

Now, the profit percentage is calculated by apply the values on the formula,

profit percentage (P%) = (395/2500) x 100

Therefore,

P% = 395/25

P% = 15.8%
