<h3>Answer: Net Increase of 26%</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

If it increases by 5%, then we use the multiplier 1.05

Think of it like saying 100% + 5% = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05

Similarly, an increase of 20% means we involve 1.20

Combine those multipliers to get: 1.05*1.20 = 1.26

This is a net increase of 26%

Interestingly, we get fairly close to 25% which is what many students might go for (since 5 + 20 = 25). This is a beginner's trap.

----------------

An example:

Let's say the temperature is 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit)

An increase of 5% means it moves to 1.05*20 = 21 degrees C

A 20% increase means we go to 1.20*21 = 25.2 degrees C

The shortcut would be to do a 26% increase to get 1.26*20 = 25.2 to help confirm we have the correct combined increase.

A brand of clay brick tiles has the dimensions 3 5 8 by 7 5 8 by 1 2 inch. These thin bricks are commonly used for floors. Estim

raketka [301]

Answer: The cost to tile the floor is $318.24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimensions of floor is 12 by 17 foot.

So, Area of floor would be

$12\times 17\\\\=204\ sq.\ foot$

As we know that 1 foot = 12 inch

So, Area of floor would be

$204\times (12)^2\\\\=204\times 144\\\\=29376\ sq.\ foot$

Dimension of brick tiles is given by

$3\dfrac{5}{8}\ by\ 7\dfrac{5}{8}\ by\ \dfrac{1}{2}$

So, Area of brick tiles is given by

$2(lb+bh+lh)\\\\=2(\dfrac{29}{8}\times \dfrac{61}{8}+\dfrac{61}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{29}{8}\times \dfrac{1}{2})\\\\=2(\dfrac{1769}{64}+\dfrac{61}{16}+\dfrac{29}{16})\\\\=2\times \dfrac{1769+244+116}{64}\\\\=\dfrac{2129}{32}$

So, Number of clay brick would be

$29376\div \dfrac{2129}{32}\\\\=29376\times \dfrac{32}{2129}\\\\=\dfrac{29376\times 32}{2129}\\\\=441.53\\\\\approx 442$

cost of each clay brick = $0.72

So, Total cost of flooring would be

$442\times 0.72\\\\=\$318.24$

Hence, The cost to tile the floor is $318.24.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
