Laura used 12 1/2 square feet of cloth to make 3 dresses. How many square feet of cloth are required to make 12 similar dresses?

Ily begins solving the equation 4(x – 1) – x = 3(x + 5) – 11. her work is shown below. 4(x – 1) – x = 3(x + 5) – 11 4x – 4 – x = 3x + 15 – 11 3x – 4 = 3x + 4 how can her partial solution be interpreted?

We just started the introduction into circles and i have no idea how to do this.

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry. how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.
