Answer: 16 small squares

why?
since this is a square mosaic, all four sides have equal numbers of glass squares
if you think about one glass square as one unit, the scenario can be considered through the equation 256=x^{2} -- where x is the number of glass squares per side ( remember, area of square = x^{2} )
so, to solve the equation, you find the square root of 256, which is 16!

~hope it makes sense~

To do this, you got to square 256.

The square root of 256 is 16.

Therefore, there are 16 small squares on each edge of the mosaic.

Kinda proof:

o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O

25 squares. Square root is 5. 5 along each edge. My work shares same concept.

Extremely unnecessary proof:

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

There are 256 squares, and you can count 16 on each edge. this shows 16 times 16, or 16 squared, which is 256.

Which table represents a function?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

to be a function, there has to be exactly one x for every y. if there is more than one per y, it makes it not a function. so, if there is two of the same number in the x, it's not a function.

Figure CDEF is a parallelogram.
Salsk061 [2.6K]
We see that CF and DE are parallel to each other, which means that they had the same length with each other, so:
6n-1=5n+9
Subtract 5n for both side
6n-1-5n=5n+9-5n
n-1=9
Add 1 for both side
n-1+1=9+1
n=10
CF=
6n-1
=6(10)-1
=60-1
=59
DE=
5n+9
=5(10)+9
=50+9
=59
CD/FE:
4n+2
=4(10)+2
=42
True/False:
n=10 True
n=7 False
CF=59 True
FE=42 True
CD=30 False. As a result, n=10;CF=59; and FE=42 is your final answer. Hope it help!
