Answer:
16.78 inches of fabric was used for headbands for each player and 8.81 inches of fabric was used for wristbands for each player
Step-by-step explanation:
Lane is making accessories for the soccer team.
For headbands
He uses 721.54 inches of fabric on headbands for 41 players and 2 coaches.
Hence:
Let the number of inches used for headbands be represented by x
41x + 2x = 721.54
43x = 721.54
x = 721.54/43
x = 16.78 inches
Hence the number of inches used to make head band for 1 player is 16.78 inches
He also uses 361.21 inches of fabric on wristbands for just the players.
We have 41 players hence:
41 players = 361.21 inches
1 player = x
41 × x = 1 × 361.21 inches
x = 361.21 inches/41
x = 8.81 inches
8.81 inches of fabric was used for wristbands for each player.
Hence:
16.78 inches of fabric was used for headbands for each player and 8.81 inches of fabric was used for wristbands for each player
