9514 1404 393

  B.  9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of face masks Ray can make with 20 m of cord is ...

  (20 m)(100 cm/m)/(10.25 cm/mask) = 195.12195 masks

To make one more mask, he will need to buy an additional amount of ...

  (196 -195.12195)×(10.25 cm) ≈ 9.00 cm

Ray would need to add 9 cm of cord to his order.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x

14 ft 7 inches

step-by-step explanation:

since each model inch corresponds to 25 real inches, 7 model inches will correspond to

7×25" = 175"
